Sierra Nevada College’s Department of Humanities and Social Sciences has received a grant for the Tournées Festival, a program which brings contemporary French cinema to American college and university campuses, to be staged April 6-9.

This inaugural festival spearheaded by SNC’s language program and made possible with the support of the Cultural Services of the French Embassy and the French Ministry of Culture, will be free and open to the public.

Now in its 15th year, the Tournées Festival has partnered with more than 300 American colleges and universities making it possible for more than 450,000 students to discover French-language films.

The film festival will coincide with the Incline Village college’s 2011 Multicultural Collaborative, a series of events and performances designed to highlight the cultural diversity of Sierra Nevada College.
