Ciné+ is a set of six[1] thematic pay television channels broadcasting movies. They are published by the Canal+ Thématiques subsidiary of Groupe Canal+ (owned by Vivendi) and are distributed by the Canal+ satellite TV as well as cable and ADSL providers. Channels broadcast all foreign films in their original language on a secondary audio channel with two subtitling tracks in French, one for translation from a foreign language and the other for the hearing impaired.

The six channels as of 2023 are:[1]

  • Ciné+ Premier
  • Ciné+ Frisson, horror and action films
  • Ciné+ Émotion, romance films
  • Ciné+ Famiz, animated films
  • Ciné+ Club, world cinema
  • Ciné+ Classic, films from the 1930s through the 1970s

Ciné+ comprised seven channels until 30 August 2013, when Ciné+ Star was discontinued.[2][3][4]
