Tournées Film Festival 2021

Rider's 1st Tournées Film Festival Is Virtual!


About the Festival

We are excited to be able to screen a series of six films drawn from across the French-speaking world, thanks to a Tournées Film Festival grant from the FACE Foundation. The series begins on February 18th and continues through April 29th.

The selected films include documentary and narrative films by both influential veteran filmmakers and first-time directors. They touch on a wide range of subjects.

All screenings will be virtual, but registration is required. All screenings are FREE and open to the Rider community and members of the Mercer County Library.
