11th French Film Festival was held online on Nov 4
The 11th French Film Festival was held online from Nov 5- 9. It was created with the intention of allowing citizens to enjoy a variety of cultural content, yet unfamiliar but interesting stories. This year's film festival was held via digital platforms such as Wave (www.wavve.com), Frenchcast (tv.naver.com/frenchcast) and YouTube to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. The opening ceremony started on Nov 5 and was aired live on YouTube.
At this film festival, 18 selected films that have been to the final round of the prize winning competition and 5 non-competitive films were screened among the 405 applications received through open competition. Audiences cast a vote online for the best film and give awards for the work that earned the most ballots.
Other talk show genre programs were held non-face-to-face via YouTube. Details such as the introduction and schedule of the competition can be found on the official website of the French Film Festival in Jeju (jejufff.org).
