Accès Cinéma Africain consists of a French immersion program for adults in Montréal, combining French language with Francophone African film and video. We offer French immersion study during the first weekend of the Vues d’Afrique Film Festival. The workshop is highly interactive and informative.
“The key to learning is the films, which provide intense and immediate insight into contemporary African society in all its variations and complexities,” according to Julia Schulz, Co-Founder and Director of Accès Cinéma Africain. “Participants should expect to have their eyes opened and awareness deepened by viewing the films and discussing them with the filmmakers; and their French language skills will soar.”
