Virtual encounters and dialogues
In addition to these 18 films, each of which will be accompanied by virtual Q&A sessions, the festival will offer several free online conferences, starting with an opening dialogue between Emmanuelle Béart and Richard Peña, professor at Columbia University, about the actress's career and French cinema. This will be followed, on March 6, by "Vive la Résistance" a conversation exploring the representation of social justice and activism in recent French and American cinema, and finally, on March 8, by "How Music Makes the Film" about the complex process of collaboration between filmmakers and composers.
