TS 05 Quoi De Neuf? French Language Program 14+

While these films from Canada, Belgium, Switzerland and France share one language, they take us through entirely different worlds. Whether on a car journey, at the hair salon, amidst thousands of sunflowers or at home, here we encounter young people who know what they want and how to get it! At turns darkly humorous or very sensitive, we learn how empathy brings us closer together.
