The oral presentation must be done in groups of 3, with no exceptions. It should consist in a 15 minute presentation of an independent film (why and how is it considered an independent film). Each group is responsible for sending the teacher the necessary information about their project until November 11: title of the project (which should include the film you are going to analyze) and group participants, to avoid repetition.
