French Film Festival

Welcome to the 2025 edition of Salve Regina University’s French Film Festival. As 2024-2025 marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of France and the end of World War II, this academic year we have chosen six films that concern, in one way or another, that critical turning point in French history and culture. 

All films will be screened on campus in the O'Hare Academic Building's Bazarsky Lecture Hall.

On opening night, a wine-and-cheese reception will be held after our first film, Au revoir les enfants, while our Sunday matinee in week two, Le Dernier Métro, will be preceded by a pastry-and-coffee reception.

To avoid lines at the door, patrons are encouraged to buy a festival pass online. Passes and tickets for individual screenings will be available at the door (cash or check only).

For general festival information, email frenchfilmfestival@salve.edu.

We look forward to seeing you March 23-April 3.
