Series has moving scene with French that's inspired (8)

I believe the answer is:

sequence

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'series' is the definition.
(I know that sequence is a type of series)

'moving scene with french that's inspired' is the wordplay.
I cannot really understand how this works, but
'french that' could be 'que' (French for 'that') and 'que' is present in the answer.
an anagram of 'scene' is 'sence' which is located in the remaining letters.
This accounts for all the letters.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'has' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for sequence that I've seen before include "Arrangement of things in order" , "Series of things in order" , "Where things follow in logical order or recurrent pattern" , "Order of succession; hymn sung after gradual" , "Serial arrangement following a logical order or recurrent pattern" .)
