Learn French with movies and series

Short scenes from French series, sketches and the French versions of animated films, each one cut into a guided lesson: the scene with French subtitles, every line transcribed, the words to know and one grammar point the scene really uses.

Version française

A film scene is French as people actually speak it — fast, with contractions, feelings and slang — but short enough to replay until every word lands. Animated films are the gentlest way in: clear voices, simple stories you may already know in your own language.
