Tunis: The 2024 season of the Francophonie Days in Tunisia will continue with 'The Francophone Film Festival,' an event held in Tunis on June 3-15 and in Sousse on June 5-19, 2024, according to a press release issued on Monday by the Organisation Internationale de la Francophonie (OIF). Celebrating Francophone cultural creation, its diversity and the ambition to support its dissemination to a wide audience are all crucial issues for the future of the French language, adds the same source. It is with this in mind that the International Organisation of La Francophonie (OIF) has chosen 'Create, Innovate and Undertake in French' as the theme for the next Francophonie Summit, due for October 2024 in Villers-Cotterêts. The festival aims to offer French-speaking and Francophile audiences a rich programme that showcases the dynamism and creative potential of the Francophone world. Organised on the initiative of the Groupe des Ambassadeurs Francophones (GAF), coordinated this year by the Délégation générale Wallon ie-Bruxelles in Tunisia, the event is held at the Institut Français de Tunis (IFT) and at the Institut Français de Sousse. In all, some twenty films (shorts and features, animated films and documentaries) submitted by the OIF and 15 other GAF member embassies (Argentina, Austria, Bulgaria, Cameroon, Canada, Egypt, France, Gabon, Greece, Morocco, Romania, Serbia, Switzerland, Wallonie-Bruxelles and Tunisia) will be screened. These films deal with universal themes such as love, friendship and commitment to a better future, but also tackle a number of topical such as the situation of women and climate change. The IFT will kick off with the Tunisian feature film 'The Man Who Sold His Skin' (2020) by Kaouther Ben Hania. Source: Agence Tunis Afrique Presse
