1. Love Friday Lunch movie screening
Speak Up / A voix haute 2016
Stéphane de Freitas, Ladj Ly (Documentary, 99min)
Time: 12:30-2:15pm
Venue: The Jockey Club Studio Theatre
Capacity: 70 seats

Each year at the University of Saint-Denis the "Eloquentia" competition for the "Best Orator of 93" ("93" being the area code of greater Paris where Saint-Denis is located) takes place. The students of this university studying any course decide to participate and prepare with help from professionals (lawyers, slammers, directors of theatrical productions), who teach them the difficult exercise of speaking in public. Over the weeks, they learn the subtle inner workings of rhetoric and learn to assert themselves, reveal themselves to others, and most particularly to themselves.
Equipped with these arms, Leïla, Elhadj, Eddy, and the others confront each other and try to win this competition to be "the Best Orator of 93."


2. Love Friday Meet up: Languages exchange table
Time: 8 pm-10pm
Duration: around 1.5-2 hours
Venue: A Corner at the Colette
Number of participants: maximum 20 people

During this lively language mix over a drink, participants will rotate and change speaking partner every few minutes. A great way to practice French speaking in an informal setting. Open to French learners, but also to native French speakers who are willing to practice English/Cantonese/Mandarin in a two-way language learning.
