Following last year's successful events and due to public demand, the SLS International Film Festival (IFF) returns!
The Advanced Degree Student Association invites you to a series of international cinematographic and culinary experiences: in each session SLS' international students will present a foreign movie (subtitled), accompanied by a matching dinner buffet and a short (!) background presentation. Come learn in the most enjoyable way about other cultures - their beauties, their challenges and their food - and become familiar with interesting international political and social questions.
Take a cultural break - come mingle, watch some masterpieces, enjoy hearty dinners and brush up your language skills.
* ADSA supports SLS' green initiative BYOWB (bring your own water bottle)
