(In the near future, a mysterious phenomenon strikes humanity and unexplained mutations gradually transform parts of the population into human-animal hybrids. The creatures, considered a threat by many, are sent to specialized centre in an attempt to stop their mutations from progressing and to control their apparent violent tendencies. When a convoy bringing hybrids to a new facility crashes in a forest, paranoia spreads in the local community as the surviving creatures scatter into the wild.

But as he secretly bonds with creatures he met in the forest, Emile opens his eyes to their humanity, leaving him and his father forever changed as the authorities close in.)

(Set against the terrestrial majesty of the Sahel, Banel & Adama is a tragic romance following two young lovers as they strive for independence and self-possession in the face of imperious tradition. Neither Senegal nor the rest of the world has known a love like Banel (Khady Mane) and Adama’s (Mamadou Diallo), each eager to begin their adult lives away from the stifling demands of their families and community. The young couple were married by an ostensible combination of chance and duty when Adama’s older brother Yero died, leaving a still-young Banel, his second wife, a too-young widow. Now, the same duty dictates that Adama accept the role of village chief. However, the fated lovers have plans that do not include the expectations of others. That is, until something in the air changes. The rains do not come, the cattle begin to die, the men leave and Banel, once lovelorn and lost in responsibility, surrenders to the call for a life lived beyond prescription.)

* DRIVING MADELEINE, A drama, comedy co-written and directed by Christian Carion, starring Line Renaud, Dany Boon, Alice Isaaz, Jérémie Laheurte, Gwendoline Hamon. Official Selection Toronto International Film Festival, Palm Springs International Film Festival, Angouleme Film Festival (Opening film). A Cohen Media Group release. 94% Tomatometer, 99% Audience Score on Rottentomatoes.com. Presented with English subtitles. Now on digital in the US. 
.
* Official US Trailer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qbKuP8H-hs
.
(A seemingly simple taxi ride across Paris evolves into a profound meditation on the realities of the driver, whose personal life is in shambles, and his fare, an elderly woman whose warmth belies her shocking past. Charles (Dany Boon) is a taxi driver in Paris, and he is having a very bad day. Some pressing personal debts are due, he’s in danger of losing his driver’s license to numerous traffic infractions, and his marriage, like Charles himself, is strained to the point of snapping. A quick fare in the suburbs seems like an easy distraction. Enter Madeleine (Line Renaud), an immaculately groomed 92-year-old woman, who informs Charles that the trip today will not be a direct one.)

(Damien Bonnard (LES MISERABLES – COLCOA 2019) and Leïla Bekhti give tour-de-force performances in this tense, tender, often-heartbreaking portrait of a family torn apart by mental illness. Damien is an impassioned painter who happens to be bipolar. Leila spends her days worrying about him and trying to keep their little boy safe. Yet the film’s intimacy and incandescent moments of joy and love — and an up-close-and-personal camera style — provide warmth and specificity, rendering three extraordinarily complex characters in vivid, merciless detail.  The fact that the director’s own father suffered from bi-polar disorder partially explains the extraordinary level of truth in this beautiful, moving, very powerful film.)

Happy New Year 2024 from TAFFF! ...

The 2023 edition of the festival is canceled. But on behalf of the Franco-American Cultural Fund, we want to #honor all #creators of this year’s selection by releasing it on www.theamericanfrenchfilmfestival.org

The 2023 program reflects French productions` #diversity and quality while welcoming established filmmakers and #newcomers. The selection includes 21 feature films, 4 documentaries, 9 series, 4 TV movies, and 17 short films. 35 would have been presented as US, North American, and World Premieres. More than 150 #writers, #directors, #composers, #talent, #producers, #distributors, #digital #platforms, and #international sales companies are associated with this selection.

#TAFFF is presented by @fondsculturelfrancoamericain, a unique partnership between @directorsguild, @motionpictures, @sacem, and @wgawest.

📢 ANNOUNCEMENT -- In light of the ongoing strikes, @fondsculturelfrancoamericain (FACF) - a joint effort of the @directorsguild, @motionpictures, @wgawest and France’s @sacem, has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2023 edition of The American French Film Festival.

The FACF is keenly aware of the impact of this decision on the #filmmakers, #actors, #producers, and #distributors of the #films and #series that were due to be featured, many of them for the first time in the 🇺🇲. The FACF would like to thank all French #cinema professionals for their understanding and supportive messages during these difficult times.

✨TAFFF will announce the full 2023 slate on September 27 to honor the selected prestigious projects.
