About BA Film and French
This course combines film with the study of French. It will suit those with an enquiring mind and a passion for exploring the culture of another country and society.
French is the first language of some 90 million speakers around the world, and francophone countries offer diverse and stimulating cultures for study.
In our Department of Film and Television, guided by leading scholars and practitioners, you will explore the history of film and television, consider theoretical perspectives, appreciate how films are made and engage in practical film-making activities.
You will study film alongside French language, history and culture units, choosing from a wide range of options that allow you to pursue your own interests. Both departments offer a vibrant learning environment with research-led teaching.
You will spend your third year abroad on a work or study placement in a French-speaking country, refining your language skills and cultural understanding. You will return to Bristol for your final year, where you will have the chance to undertake a placement in the creative industries.
