French Cinema: The Margins of French Society on Screen

Minis
This mini cinema course explores the lives of those on the margins of French-speaking society through four powerful films (there are four different films for each session). From vagabonds and war prisoners to immigrant youth and working-class strugglers, these stories highlight how cinema gives voice to the silenced and forgotten. Through discussion and analysis, we'll consider how filmmakers portray social exclusion, resilience, and the complexities of identity. Prerequisite DEFI 206 or equivalent.

From Conversation to Clarity

Specialty & Cultural Classes
A great follow-up to Advanced Everyday French, this Advanced French course offers a unique structure that allows students to benefit from the strengths of two exceptional instructors. The first six weeks will be led by a philosophy professor known for his dynamic, culture-rich classes on topics such as fashion, architecture, and society. While the focus will be on conversation, students will use the textbook Grammaire en Dialogue Niveau Avancé to support both oral expression and grammar review. The final four weeks will shift toward a more structured focus on grammar, guided by a second experienced teacher with a strong background in language instruction. Together, the two parts of the course offer a well-rounded learning experience that combines cultural exploration, conversation practice, and solid grammar review.
