In April, the international French-language network TV5MONDE will present, to United States audiences, five of the films from the 2019 Young French Cinema program, which for the past four years has stimulated viewing access to French films without distribution deals in the United States.
The following five films from this year's "Young French Cinema Film Series" will soon be broadcast on TV5 Monde in the United States:
- Sofia by Meryem Benm'Barek
- Ouvrir la voix by Amandine Gay
- Return to Bollene by Saïd Hamich Benlarbi
- Braguino by Clément Cogitore
- Gaspard at the Wedding by Antony Cordier
In parallel, TV5 Monde is also providing support to theater screenings of three films included in the Young French Cinema 2019 selection at the Arena Cinelounge in Hollywood: Gaspard at the Wedding in early April, Return to Bollene (in the presence of the film's director Saïd Hamich Benlarbi) on April 18, and Love Blooms on May 9.
