About Cinema Nouveau

The University of North Carolina at Wilmington is proud to host the fourth season of CINEMA NOUVEAU, showcasing five cutting-edge French films.  The entire series is free to the public, and each film will be shown on the big screen in 35mm, with English subtitles, in the Lumina Theater at the Fisher Student Center on the UNCW campus. (Click here for a campus map, PDF version.) All are warmly invited to what promises to be an exciting festival of cinema. Collectively, the five filmmakers embody much of what makes French cinema innovative, unpredictable, and at the cutting edge of world filmmaking.

We, the organizers of CINEMA NOUVEAU, hope you will take advantage of this unique opportunity to view these hard-to-find films. The festival is another indication of Wilmington's rising status as a center for film culture. We look forward to seeing you there!
