Screening of the film 'Sisterhood' within the 2026 Francophone Film Festival, which explores global health through a decolonial lens.
Sisterhood screens at Brown Hall on Saturday, October 17, at 3 PM. It's part of the 2026 Francophone Film Festival, put on by the Romance Languages and Literatures department. This year's festival centers on global health seen through a decolonial lens, and it looks at that theme through stories of migration, displacement, conflict, motherhood, mental health, and social connections across Francophone countries. The whole thing is meant to put cinema in conversation with questions of global health and social justice.
Brown Hall is on Washington University's Danforth campus in St. Louis, and the screening is in Room 100. The hall is named for George Warren Brown, and it was dedicated in January 1937. The east wing houses a 500-seat auditorium, which is where you'll find the screening. If you're coming from outside the campus, the address is Brown Hall, 100, St. Louis, MO 63130.

Since this is part of a larger festival, Sisterhood is one of several films the department is showing this season. The festival's focus on global health and social justice runs through the whole program, so if you're interested in how cinema can tackle those kinds of big, systemic questions, this is a good place to start. The screening is at 3 PM on Saturday, October 17, at Brown Hall, 100.
