Minimum level required in French: C1 (advanced)
The aim of this course is to provide an overview of French cinema from the New Wave until today. Through a detailed study of a few films, we'll look at the main trends and follow the evolution of French cinema from the 1960s to the present day. Each film, as a work of art and a reflection of the culture that produced it, will lead to a better understanding of the French language, culture, history and society.
The course will adopt a chronological approach and will be structured around the analysis of extracts.
