Who are we?
The Franco-American Cultural Fund (FACF) promotes cinematographic creation and restoration on both sides of the Atlantic and encourages dialogue between professionals from both countries.
our missions
promotion
The Franco-American Cultural Fund undertakes actions to promote French cinema, develop ties with American distributors and facilitate access to the North American market for many French filmmakers and producers.
restoration
The history of French and American cinema is rich with great films, both historic and entertaining, which are an integral part of both countries’ collective memory. Thus, the Franco-American Cultural Fund quite naturally wished to support a restoration programme for these great films.
exchange
The Franco-American Cultural Fund also undertakes actions to incite and strengthen opportunities for meetings between French and American professionals, around their respective films and the many concerns they share, whether technical, artistic or relating to cultural policy.
