Mobile Film Festival shorts
For 2018 French Film Festival UK has teamed up with the Paris-based Mobile Film Festival to present a selection of French-language contenders from this year’s crop. They all last one-minute, cover myriad subjects and themes – and were shot on mobile phones (or tablets). One title will screen before each Festival feature.
