France and foreign countries

More than 500,000 French children live abroad and attend schools in the French education network abroad or in local schools. Few have the opportunity to return to France regularly and many parents place great importance on maintaining a link with France.

French children of foreign origin living in France sometimes have little opportunity to discover the diversity of the French culture and landscape.

Discover the natural and urban landscapes of France

The short films will be an opportunity to discover the natural and urban landscapes of France, to understand and differentiate the particularities of a place, to compare with our country of origin or the country in which we live.
