Following a record-breaking 2025 edition with almost 199,000 attendees, the Alliance Française French Film Festival (AF FFF), Australia’s largest national film festival and the biggest festival of French cinema in the world, has announced its 2026 return to Luna Leederville, Windsor, Luna on SX and Luna Outdoor from 12 March to 15 April, 2026.

Embark on a unique cultural journey featuring French box-office smash-hits, star-studded adaptations, Hollywood stars and Cannes masterpieces. This year’s 38-film lineup has no shortage of French star power, with icons such as Isabelle Huppert in LA FEMME LA PLUS RICHE DU MONDE (THE RICHEST WOMAN IN THE WORLD), Laure Calamy in CLASSE MOYENNE (THE PARTY’S OVER!) and C’EST QUOI L’AMOUR? (WHAT IS LOVE?), and Marion Cotillard in LA TOUR DE GLACE (THE ICE TOWER), as well as exciting newcomers like Amélie Bonnin with PARTIR UN JOUR (LEAVE ONE DAY) and Enya Baroux in ON IRA (BON VOYAGE, MARIE). See the extraordinary debut of Jodie Foster in her first French language leading role in Rebecca Zlotowski’s VIE PRIVÉE (A PRIVATE LIFE).

Opening this year’s festival will be Cédric Klapisch’s acclaimed LA VENUE DE L’AVENIR (COLOURS OF TIME), a playful homage to France’s rich artistic heritage and changing social mores. Starring Suzanne Lindon, Vincent Macaigne, Cécile de France and Paul Kircher, the comedic drama follows the lives of cousins who inherit an old house in rural Normandy and retrace the steps of their ancestors in 19thcentury Paris. Closing the festival is Johann Dionnet’s AVIGNON (RODRIGUE IN LOVE). The must-see romantic comedy is set in the heart of the country's most famous theatre festival, Avignon, and stars Baptiste Lecaplain, Alison Wheeler and Lyès Salem.

Direct from the Croisette will also be Cannes Film Festival stand-outs L’INCONNU DE LA GRANDE ARCHE (THE GREAT ARCH), the story of Otto von Spreckelsen, a real-life architecture teacher from Copenhagen who surprised the world when he won an open-call competition to design the Great Arch of La Défense; French coming-of-age drama ENZO; and AMÉLIE ET LA MÉTAPHYSIQUE DES TUBES (LITTLE AMELIE OR THE CHARACTER OF RAIN), an animation from filmmakers Maïlys Vallade and Liane-Cho Han.
