FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: FILMS ON THE GREEN ANNOUNCES 2016 LINE-UP
NEW YORK’S ONLY OUTDOOR FREE FRENCH FILM FESTIVAL
FILMS ON THE GREEN ANNOUNCES 2016 LINE-UP:
10 CLASSIC & CONTEMPORARY FRENCH FILMS OFFER A FRESH LOOK AT PARIS
Films on the Green is a free outdoor French film festival produced annually in New York City parks by the Cultural Services of the French Embassy in the United States, FACE Foundation and NYC Parks.
The festival’s 2016 theme, “A summer in Paris”, offers a striking portrait of the City of Lights, its urban landscape, and cultural diversity. A selection of classic, New Wave, and contemporary films by directors such as Jean-Luc Godard, Agnès Varda and Céline Sciamma will showcase the city’s aesthetic, cultural, and cinematic history from a dramatically unconventional angle through stories of love, romance, adolescence, female identity, and urban life in Parisian and its surrounding suburbs.
Films on the Green 2016 is part of Tandem Paris-New York, a large-scale transatlantic cultural exchange between Paris and New York. From June through October 2016, cultural institutions in New York and Paris will present an extraordinary selection of events in a variety of cultural disciplines including music, dance, cinema, literature, theatre, the visual arts, language, gastronomy, and digital innovation from the partner city.
