About Ciné-Club & Special Screenings
Our screenings at the M.L. Bhartia Auditorium are more than just films. We curate a regular mix of contemporary dramas, animated classics, and documentaries, all provided with English subtitles so language is never a barrier. It is an open, informal space where we often host panel discussions with filmmakers or community leaders right after the credits roll, making it a place to meet people as much as watch movies.
Why Join Our Ciné-Club?
Located in the lush Lodi Estate, our auditorium serves as a cultural hub for film enthusiasts. Whether you are a student learning French or just someone looking for a different kind of weekend in Delhi, our Ciné-Club offers a front-row seat to Francophone culture.
The Experience
We don't just hit 'play.' We see cinema as a conversation. Many of our screenings—ranging from French new wave to social documentaries—are followed by discussions. Sometimes we invite the directors; other times, we explore themes of identity and society, as seen in our recent IDAHOBIT and Pride Month events. It is a space designed for dialogue, diversity, and human dignity.
