FRENCH FILM CLUB
During this year’s IFI French Film Festival, we’re delighted to launch our French Film Club in association with Alliance Française. The Club will gather on chosen dates during the year for special screenings of regular French films within the main IFI programme.

Guest speakers will be in attendance, and a reserved area will be held in the newly refurbished Mezzanine for people to discuss the
film after the screening. The new French Film Club will kick off at the screening of Bellamy on Monday, November 23rd at 20:30.

Anyone can attend and register for the French Film Club, and IFI members and Alliance Française members will also get a special discounted €7 ticket price on those nights.

 

FRENCH FILM QUIZ
Do you know your Betty Blues from your Big Blues, your Rivette from your Renoir, your Tatou from your Tati? Then join us at the IFI for our inaugural French Film Quiz with four fun-filled rounds of entertaining and challenging questions loosely based on the Festival’s line-up of films. Teams of up to five can compete, though should you want to participate alone, you can. Oh, and the prizes, the prizes...

A few weeks after the phenomenal success of our annual IFI Horrorthon Festival, this year the IFI is delighted to present its first French Film Festival horror slot in association with Horrorthon. So if you’ve been missing the gore and mayhem since the Festival, here’s your chance to get your next fix!

CLUB NIGHT
With a soundtrack packed with cracking French hip-hop and old-school classics by way of House of Pain, De La Soul and A Tribe Called Quest, music is as much of a character in animated comedy Round Da Way as the film’s unruly duo. How better to round off the Irish premiere of the film than with some Round Da Way inspired tunes, courtesy of DJ EZO. Join us in the IFI bar from 10pm. Regular cinema admission applies for the screening of Round Da Way, but entry to the club night is free.
