Literary screenings
Picks by Évelyne de la Chenelière, Anaïs Barbeau-Lavalette
Cinéma Public and Les petites productions are teaming up again this autumn to present two screenings hosted by key figures on the literary scene.
Rumours
Rumours follows the seven leaders of the world’s wealthiest liberal democracies at the annual G7 summit after they become lost in the woods and face increasing peril while attempting to draft a provisional statement regarding a global crisis.
Bird
Eccentric and, in the end deeply moving, we follow twelve-year-old Bailey living in a squat with her young father Bug, the king of hustle. Independent and rebellious, she roams the streets and fields and meets the enigmatic Bird, whose initiatory quest she will embrace.
The Substance
You’ve got to try this new product: The Substance. It generates another you. Younger, more beautiful, more perfect. And there’s only one rule: You share time. One week for you. One week for the new you. If you respect the balance… what could possibly go wrong?
Free screenings
“Ciné-jasettes,” a series of films and encounters
We invited senior citizens in our neighbourhood to come up with their own series of films. The result of this collaborative approach is a programme that highlights the contribution of women to Quebec culture.
Ensemble au cinéma
Over 5,000 participants!
Through the “Ensemble au cinéma” cultural mediation project, we are pursuing an objective that is close to our hearts: to make the cinema a place where people can live together, where the experience of films is lived, shared and developed through exchange and discussion.
