Ru Highlights Francophone Diversity via Alliance Française de Seattle

Reviews
Written By Gray Harrison

Seattle has had a longstanding connection with the Francophone world. As one of the top 15 most common non-English languages spoken among Seattle residents, French is a vital part of the city. The Alliance Française de Seattle is a local nonprofit that serves as one of the central hubs for both language instruction and Francophone cultural events and programming, and has been doing so since 1987.
On March 12, AFdS hosted a screening of the 2023 film Ru at Northwest Film Forum. The event was co-sponsored by the Québec Government Office, which opened a new delegation in Seattle this year.
