2008 TICKET & SPECIAL EVENTS

 

Bringing premieres of major French films to Sacramento is costly, yet the Sacramento French Film Festival strives to present its excellent and original program at a reasonable price.
The 2008 SFFF will be no exception: it will offer first rate films and events at an affordable price. Prices will remain the same as in 2007.
