  • Film Festival: Francophone films (Tournées) or Latin American and Spanish films (Pragda). These events, open to the public, are made possible thanks to grants from the French and the Spanish embassies and are organized by the Faculty of the Department of Modern Languages and Intercultural Studies. Each festival shows 4-5 films. We offer one festival a year, alternating between French and Spanish-speaking movies. Film' introductions and discussions are led by SU faculty.
