'screening of material from' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'a film finally is repeated in french' is the wordplay.
'finally' indicates one should take the final letters.
'is repeated' indicates the doubling of some letters.
'in french' becomes 'est' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
The final letter of 'film' is 'm'.
'est' doubled is 'estest'.
'a'+'m'+'estest'='AMES TEST'
