Because French is more than a language, the Alliance Française proposes many events throughout the year to help you to live French culture.
French Movie Night - Les demoiselles de rochefort
10th of June 6:00pm - 8:30pm
Join us for an evening of French cinema at the Alliance Française! Discover or rediscover with your family the film "Les demoiselles de
rochefort" by Jacques Demy .
"Delphine and Solange are two twins of 25 years old, charming and witty. Delphine, the blonde, gives dance lessons and Solange, the redhead,
gives music theory lessons. They live in the music as others live in the moon and dream to meet the great love at the corner of the street.
Just then, fairground workers arrive in town, and they frequent the bar run by the twins' mother. A big fair is coming up and a dreamy
sailor is looking for his ideal woman..."

"Delphine et Solange sont deux jumelles de 25 ans, ravissantes et spirituelles. Delphine, la blonde, donne des leçons de danse et
Solange, la rousse, des cours de solfège. Elle vivent dans la musique comme d'autres vivent dans la lune et rêvent de rencontrer le grand
amour au coin de la rue. Justement des forains arrivent en ville. Ils fréquentent le bar que tient la mère des jumelles. Une grande foire se
prépare et un marin rêveur cherche son idéal féminin..."

The election to change legal structure of the Alliance Française of Canberra will take place May 25th,
from 5pm at the Alliance Française of Canberra.
The Committee of the Alliance française de Canberra has decided to propose to members that the Alliance should move from an Incorporated
Association to a Company Limited by Guarantee. This change will have no impact on you or your French classes or our events. If this change
occurs, you will remain a member of the new organisation. The Committee believes that this change will ensure that the Alliance is
structured in the most appropriate and resilient way to enable it to thrive both now and into the future. This change will also give us the
opportunity to expand our reach into regional areas surrounding the ACT.
