Hungarian-born Canadian artist Istvan Kantor has spent half a century creating a singular and radical body of work in which performance, actionism, and body art challenge the audience’s sensory conventions. In 1993, he took part in the exhibition _Les Cent jours d’art contemporain de Montréal_, presenting a dual installation that was completely demolished on the hundredth day in a violent and c...

_Faded Photograph _retraces the life of the filmmaker’s father, who died when she was 12, through a montage of his memoirs. Drawing on family films and the diaries he kept throughout his life, Fanie Pelletier tells the story of an ordinary man whose personal memories echo those of an entire generation emerging from Quebec’s Great Darkness, a period when liberation also meant losing one’s bearin...
_What These Ashes Wanted_—which combines hand-processed film, video diaries, found sound, text, and narration—is a ritual of grief that feels both collective and intimate. Our own stories of loss fill the gaps between Hoffman’s images of Egyptian tombs, wintertime frolics, and insect activity.
Devastated after the death of a friend, a young woman (Deragh Campbell) attempts to extract meaning from this intense loss as she discovers signs in her daily life and through encounters with the art of Wassily Kandinsky and Hilma af Klint. Amidst travels that are at once internal and external, she searches for traces of her friend as connections uncannily accumulate. Shapes and colours from ac...
This documentary gives a voice to children living with cystic fibrosis or leukemia. With the words of children but the wisdom of old souls, they face a heartbreaking reality, fighting every day against illness and for life itself. Through this film, director Marquise Lepage pays tribute to their courage and resilience.
Through the portraits, questions and preoccupations of young Quebecers aged 20 to 25, this documentary raises, often with humour, a reflection on Quebec society in 1988: family, couples, work, unemployment, creation, politics, the future, and so on. The director, for her part, embodies the 35-year-old generation, helping to measure how far we've come since the late 60s.
Their names are Rafik, Solace, Rahat, Jessica and Adonay. They are six years old. They live in Parc-Extension, a multi-ethnic neighbourhood in the heart of Montreal. They are Madame Lise's students. Over an entire school year, director Sylvie Groulx observes their learning and watches them live.
_The Big Sweep_ is a caustic and humorous challenge to the traditional male and female roles and stereotypes inculcated by our upbringing. The film illustrates two opposing worlds: that of the “eternal masculine” and that of the “eternal feminine” through the behaviors, concerns, work and aspirations of women and men, and through the games, projects and dreams of children.
A documentary about housing issues in Montreal and the large-scale demolitions that took place in working-class neighbourhoods, particularly on Saint-Jacques and Saint-Norbert streets.
