“Notre-Dame on Fire” by Academy Award-winning Director Jean-Jacques Annaud

The event, organised by the French Embassy, was attended by guests of honour Annaud himself, as well as the French Ambassador and Deputy Prime Minister Heng Swee Keat. CinemaWorld has been a long-term partner and supporter of the French embassy on their numerous ventures over the years and will continue to be in the years to come.

The film itself is A nail-biter from start to finish, “Notre-Dame on Fire” is a stunning piece of film that celebrates the unbreakable spirit of the French people in times of great calamity and is a must watch for anyone who loves a good story full of heart and entertainment.

After the screening, we were further treated to a live QnA session with Director Annaud as well as René Dosne, Former Operational Draftman from the Paris Fire Brigade who aided in coordinating the over 400 on site men and women in their efforts to put out the fire.

It was an unforgettable experience and we’re incredibly grateful to the French Embassy for organizing such a phenomenal event.
