The four films—The Artist, The Intouchables, Beautiful Lies, and Un Plan Parfait—premiered in Vietnam last year to audience acclaim.

The tour was inspired by the desire to bring French cinema to Vietnamese people from all walks of life.

The mobile cinema departed the Embassy of France in Hanoi on October 16 and held its first screening in Lai Chau province on October 18.

The mobile cinema will travel through Lai Chau, Dien Bien, Hanoi, Quang Ninh, Haiphong, Vinh, Hue, Danang, Kon Tum, Dak Lak, Dong Nai, Ho Chi Minh City, Can Tho, Da Lat, and Nha Trang.

Each stop will last two days with double bills shown at 7pm and 8:50 pm.

In Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, screenings will last four evenings.
