Films on the Green 2022 will span 9 different parks across Manhattan and Brooklyn from June 3 to September 9. Films on the Green is a free outdoor French film festival produced annually in New York City by Villa Albertine, the French Embassy, FACE Foundation, and NYC Parks and Recreations. No ticket is needed. You are encouraged to come outdoors for the screenings for all.
This 2022 festival theme is "From Page to Screen" spotlighting 12 diverse and world -class literary adaptations.
"In France, one in five films is a literary adaptation, so this year's Films on the Green selection is truly the best of the best. For a behind-the-scenes perspective, New Yorkers may want to grab one or more of the books—but whether or not you've read the original, each film is an entertaining and thought-provoking approach to the challenge of adaptation." — Gaëtan Bruel, Cultural Counselor of the French Embassy in the US and Director of Villa Albertine
