About Us

The Francophone Film Festival of Kalamazoo is conducted to provide the communities of Western Michigan University and of Kalamazoo, as well as educators across Michigan and the surrounding Midwestern states, an opportunity to experience a broader and more diverse view of the many world cultures which express themselves in French. The FFFK is dedicated to the presentation of original creative cinema from the Francophone World.

Our goals are both artistic and educative: we want to propose an alternative to the mainstream cinematographic industry and to help implement reforms in curriculum design in Foreign Language teaching (mostly French) and International Studies in the entire educative spectrum (K-12 and college level).
