The Tournées Festival returns to WKU this March with a lineup of 2013-2014's most critically acclaimed French films that deal with issues of migrancy, terrorism, and postcolonial identity. If your classes this semester have included discussion of the Charlie Hebdo attacks or ISIS in Europe, this event will hopefully extend that dialogue through narrative and documentary film.
Post-screening discussion each evening will be hosted by a panel of WKU professors. This year, the festival will also feature speakers from the International Center of Kentucky. All films begin at 7:00 p.m. in Cherry Hall 125 and are subtitled in English. The event is swipeable.
