Join us at The American French Film Festival for the U.S. Premiere of FORSAKEN (L’Abandon), followed by a conversation with writer/director Vincent Garenq.
Presented Out of Competition at Cannes, this powerful drama retraces the eleven days leading up to the murder of French teacher Samuel Paty. Starring Antoine Reinartz and Emmanuelle Bercot, the film examines how a classroom lesson on freedom of expression became the target of a devastating campaign of misinformation and online outrage.
Presented in association with Cinando, Studio TF1, France Télévisions, and The Mill.
📅 Thursday, November 5, at 7:30 PM
📍 DGA Theater Complex, Los Angeles
In French with English subtitles.

Franco-Belgian cinema took center stage at TAFFF last night. ✨
A sold-out audience discovered COWARD, Belgium’s entry for Best International Feature Film at the 2027 Academy Awards.
A warm thank you to the Consulate of Belgium in Los Angeles for partnering with us on this premiere—and adding a taste of Belgium to the evening with beers for our guests!
We were honored to welcome Consul General Sophie Hottat, who shared opening remarks and introduced Belgian director Lukas Dhont to the audience.
