Every great thing starts with an idea. The idea and dream for our film festival were born through many discussions and brainstorming sessions among French American and Francophile American.
Because film is one of the greatest ways to express the language of the heart and to emphasize the universal principles of liberty, equality, and fraternity; we decided a very effective way to focus on this French-American bond would be to manifest an annually recurring France USA International Film Festival! persons, in the film industry, and many other people committed to the special French-American relationship. Through these discussions and subsequent planning sessions, we agreed there was a need to emphasize, nurture, and celebrate the great bond and common cultural heritage between France and America.
