I don't know whether to say "private sneak preview" or "priviate prerelease showing" or what:
Ces tirages au sort mettent en jeu des dotations tout à fait exceptionnelles, qui permettent aux plus chanceux de réaliser leurs rêves les plus fous :
une projection privée en avant-première d’un grand film, une semaine de plongée aux Bahamas, une invitation pour assister à la MTV Dance Party à Ibiza, une présence modalisée du gagnant dans le jeu vidéo Driver 3…

5 +6 private pre-release screening or showing
5 +1 a private preview screening
4 première screening ?
4 private screening in advance of release
4 private preview
4 Premiere
