Sacramento French Film Festival
Description
 | Dedicated to celebrating the present as well as the rich history of French cinema, the Sacramento French Film Festival features new French films in their Sacramento premieres; and rarely seen French classics. The Festival has also, since its inception, involved the Sacramento art community by including short films from Sacramento artists. The talented creator of the SFFF original posters is Sacramento photographer Kent Lacin. By choosing the Crest Theatre, the only independent and locally owned movie theatre in Sacramento, the Festival plays an important part in the revitalization and cultural development of Downtown Sacramento. In just a few years, the Sacramento French Film Festival has become an acclaimed, popular and anticipated cultural event. It was described in the Sacramento Bee in July 2003, as "the Cinematic Highlight of Sacramento's Summer". The Festival strives to show inventive, courageous and inspiring films. By the diversity of its programming, it appeals to a large audience. In 2005, the Sacramento French Film Festival received the Arts Management Excellence Award from the Arts & Business Council, for its outstanding contribution to arts and culture in the Sacramento region. In 2007, the Sacramento French Film Festival won the Dottie Award for Best Website in the Entertainment, Restaurant & Nightclub catgory. The Sacramento French Film Festival is organized by a team of French and American women and men from various backgrounds who share a passion for French cinema. |
