Soirée Ciné is a series of movie nights, in which we show and discuss movies from all over the world, originally shot in the French language. Every semester, we select 3 or 4 francophone movies and show them in French with English subtiles. No need to speak French!
Soirée ciné is a free event. Come with a friend or your roommate, grab some free popcorn and drink, and enjoy this cultural night. Everyone is welcome!
Soirée Ciné is an event supported by the Department of Foreign Languages at Tennessee Technological University.
