Join us... for our Special Event - The Godmother!
Instead of our monthly Ciné-Club, we will run a Special Event screening of The Godmother (2020) on Thursday 1 July at 6:30pm.
Our French language students are holding their “class” at The Godmother so a large crowd is expected - join in the fun!
Tickets available from Event - $14.50 AF member.

 
From 6pm - complimentary bread & cheese and $5 glasses of Beach House wine 
"The Godmother is a beautifully crafted blend of French noir, drama and comedy with a triumphant performance by Huppert as a defiantly independent woman making her mark on the world with a bang rather than a whimper." 

Click here to see the trailer.

Award-winning, feel-good French drama about the friendship that develops between an aristocrat - a quadriplegic after a recent paragliding accident - and a man from the projects hired to be his caretaker. Based on a true story.

We will be taking a break in July as the French Film Festival Aotearoa will take place from 24 June - 7 July.

For once, the hype is justified. This is a charming, uplifting French drama – an irreverent, humorous take on disability, closely drawn from real-life." - The Guardian
