2026 Vail Film Festival: French Showcase

A Celebration of French Cinematic Excellence

The Vail Film Festival is proud to present our dedicated French Showcase, a vibrant showcase of the best new cinema emerging from France and the French-speaking world.

Through our strategic partnership with the ÉCU-Paris Film Festival (The European Independent Film Festival), Vail Film Festival serves as a crucial North American conduit for these dynamic voices. We are committed to fostering direct access for French artists to U.S. audiences, distributors, and industry leaders.

The program will include a French Film Screening Series, Franco-American Panel Discussions, and a French Filmmaker Masterclass— enriching the artistic landscape while supporting the promotion of French filmmakers in North America.
