Topic: Kiki of Montparnasse
Speaker: Chris TRACEY
We go to the first half of the 20th century to examine the colourful life of Kiki de Montparnasse, born Alice Ernestine Prin. Liberated and flamboyant she became the muse of the avant garde generation. In this talk which contains some adult themes we’ll meet writers and artists. Many have been captivated by her story and we hope you will be too.
Looking forward to seeing you on 13 décembre.
À bientôt, Philip

Ciné-cercle 15 novembre 2023
Chers Amis,
The next meeting of the Cercle Français de Belfast will take place on
mercredi 15 novembre 2023 à 19h30 and will be online as a Zoom meeting.
Topic: Ciné-cercle
In this event we shall 'check out' a small sample of the films available on www.tv5mondsplus.com. Below you will find information on, and links to, three films from the TV5MONDE library .. a 'short', a comedy and a documentary. Like all films from TV5MONDE these are free to view and each is available with English subtitles.
If you would like to view one or indeed all of these before 15 November we can discuss (in bookclub fashion) your thoughts on them at the meeting. It will also be a chance to hear from you just what is available free, in French and subtitled on the many media platforms.
I am very much looking forward to hearing your views.
SHORT (2011, 17mins)
