Los Angeles, United States · Multiple structural red flags — exercise caution before submitting
I could not verify a Los Angeles film festival named "Palais du Fruits Film Festival" from the provided results. The closest match is The American French Film Festival (formerly COLCOA), a major Los Angeles festival dedicated to French cinema that screens feature films, documentaries, series, and shorts, often including U.S. premieres.[1][2][18]
