French films to be screened in Kazakh language for first time

French films will make their Kazakh language debut for the first time. Dubbed foreign movies will be presented to the local viewers following the Week of French Premieres. According to the French Embassy in Kazakhstan, the traditional event is scheduled for October of this year. Previously, the Kazakh State Center for Support of National Cinema and the French National Center for Film and Moving Images (CNC) signed an additional cooperation agreement during the Cannes International Film Festival for bilateral distribution and joint film production. Moreover, the French side is ready to support Kazakh cinema, and therefore, working visits by CNC experts to Kazakhstan will be organized.
