Alliance Francaise Hong Kong (AFHK) is glad to collaborate with Agence France-Presse (AFP) to exhibit a beautiful selection of Cannes Film Festival photos across three centres of Alliance Francaise Hong Kong and on virtual exhibition platform artplacer.

Welcome to the French May Cinema Programme, which this year celebrates the 5th edition of Make Music, Hong Kong!, created in 2018 and co-organised with the Consulate General of France in Hong Kong and Macao, and Alliance Française de Hong Kong.

For the first time in the company's history, the Met presents the original five-act French version of Verdi's epic opera about a doomed love between royalty, set against the backdrop of the Spanish Inquisition in David McVicar's monumental new stage. Yannick Nézet-Séguin leads a world-class opera cast that includes tenor Matthew Polenzani in the lead role, soprano Sonya Yoncheva as Élisabeth de Valois and mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton as Eboli.
