& a Fade to Grey
Lydie Jean-Dit-Pannel, haunted by a stay in the Fukushima region, produces an engaged video poetry dealing with the risks and disasters of civil and military nuclear power. She uses the character she has created for herself, the "lady butterfly", as a vector and makes it coincide with an iconic character, Psyche, who serves as her guide, in a poetic and ironic way. A testimony and a solitary, a...
Allers-venues
Women meet for the summer in a Provençal house. In a rather idyllic nature, they get active, paint, do gymnastics, rest, sometimes dressed, sometimes not. They can also be seen inside the house, busy preparing meals and always in the company of animals; cats or chickens. In spite of the fast pace of the images and the wild soundtrack, the atmosphere is serene until the separation, when the holi...

Silence of the Tides
Silence of the Tides is a cinematic portrait of the largest tidal wetlands in the world: the Wadden Sea. The film plays witness to the rough, yet fragile relationship between man and nature as it pulsates with the inhaling and exhaling of the tides. It’s a hypnotizing large screen look into the cycles and contrasts of the seasons: life and death, storm and silence, the masses and the individua...

Death is Dangerous, it Could Hurt
Death is Dangerous, it Could Hurt
Subscription accessThree rhythmic storylines are characterized by the rituals of everyday life and the vicissitudes of existence, coalescing around a common experience: that of shooting up as a mode of drug use.
Má Sài Gòn (Mother Saigon)
In Saigon, family culture carries on as it has for centuries, even when blood ties are broken. Through a mosaic of intimate portraits, _Má Sài Gòn_ explores humanity’s universal desire for love, acceptance, connection and belonging through an LGBTQ+ lens. The film is a love letter – a bittersweet ode to a comforting yet disturbing mother, to a city that is as liberating as it is oppressive.
Vibrations from Gaza
This film offers an insight into the experiences of deaf children in the colonized and confined coastal territory of Gaza, Palestine, particularly the violence to which they are subjected by Israeli military operations. Born and raised under the frequent onslaught of the occupying forces, children Amani, Musa, Israa and others recite vivid memories of their experiences of bombardment and the co...
I Might Be Dead by Tomorrow
Patients arrive in the consultation room every day, broken, sick and scarred by life. In front of them sits a committed person who tries, without false hope, to repair bodies and psyches. At night, when the clinic doors are closed, the street outreach workers take to the streets to extend their support to all those unfortunate women who have chosen the streets as their home.
Videoletters
Between February and June 1991, filmmakers Robert Kramer and Stephen Dwoskin exchanged several video letters (four by Kramer, three by Dwoskin) shot in Hi-8. These _Videoletters_ freed them from the formalities that burdened their work and reflections at the time. Through this exchange, they began to learn and observe anew.
The Theory of Everything
_The Theory of Everything_ navigates its way between people and landscapes, between discourse and territory. Evocative landscapes whose silent presence speaks volumes. People who, asked to talk about themselves, about their connection to the world, discuss the land and the subsoil, the forests and the rivers, everything that shapes them. The people we meet are not experts. In their own way, the...
I Lost My Mom
In the style of a film diary, this documentary immerses us in the personal experience of the filmmaker and his sister as they try to ensure their mother can end her days with dignity in the CHSLD system. Amid this complex challenge, Denys Desjardins films his mother with incredible tenderness. He communicates her vulnerability and warm personality from a place of love and respect. This feature-...
Resources
In an employment assistance community organization, asylum seekers are offered jobs in slaughterhouses that will allow them to restart lives they were abruptly forced to leave behind. On a livestock farm, cows, pigs, and farmers are subjected to the rhythm of an industrial agricultural model. Outside, only the corn plants that serve to feed the animals pierce the aridity of desert-like soil. _R...
