  • Canada Now 2020 Spirited · Diverse · Independent February 13 –16 Ifc Center, New York
    CANADA NOW 2020 SPIRITED · DIVERSE · INDEPENDENT FEBRUARY 13 –16 IFC CENTER, NEW YORK CanadaNowFestival.com Follow us on Facebook at @CanadaNowFilm With the support of CANADA NOW 2020: EYES WIDE OPEN NEW FILMS FROM CANADA In these troubled, tense, tempestuous times, now is the moment to look to your northern neighbor’s flm artists for their 2020 visions. CANADA NOW 2020 is coming soon, and it features some of Canada’s most acclaimed veteran flmmakers as well as some sensational emerging cinematic talents. As William Faulkner famously wrote, “The past is never dead. It’s not even past.” The flms in CANADA NOW 2020 offer diverse, inventive explorations of how the past both exists in and shapes the present. While its presence can be traumatic, it can also be a source of power and inspiration. In dramatic and documentary forms, in tones serious and comic, these Canadian flmmakers tell stories that confront that gnarled interaction of then and now with cinematic artistry and with open eyes and open hearts. Canada Now’s 2020 offerings range from Atom Egoyan’s dark father- daughter tale GUEST OF HONOUR and Zacharias Kunuk’s breathtaking drama of colonialism in the vast snowy landscapes of Canada’s north, ONE DAY IN THE LIFE OF NOAH PIUGATTUK, to Sophie Deraspe’s astonishing modern update of ANTIGONE (winner of the Best Canadian Feature Film Award at the Toronto International Film Festival) and THIS IS NOT A MOVIE, Yung Chang’s revealing documentary portrait of international journalism’s fearless foreign correspondent, Robert Fisk. The selection also includes Louise Archambault’s poetic AND THE BIRDS RAINED DOWN, the story of three aging hermits living ‘off the grid;’ Nicole Dorsey’s debut feature, BLACK CONFLUX, an original coming-of-age drama set in a small town in Canada’s easternmost province, Newfoundland; RED SNOW, an intense war drama by Marie Clements about an Indigenous Canadian soldier captured by the Taliban while serving in Afghanistan; and Monia Chokri’s A BROTHER’S LOVE, an offbeat comedy about a sister and brother who have a decidedly unique flial bond.

Money’s omnipotence is but one of the symptoms. Will we find antibiotics powerful enough to fight the gangrene? - Denys Arcand Synopsis Pierre-Paul Daoust, 36, an intellectual with a PhD in philosophy is forced to work as a deliveryman to afford a decent living. One day, while delivering a parcel, he gets caught in a hold up gone terribly wrong: two dead and millions in money bags laying on the ground. Pierre-Paul is confronted with a dilemma leave empty handed, or take the money and run? This new Denys Arcand film takes a witty yet touching look at, as only Arcand knows how, the predominance of money in a society where all other values seem to have crumbled. 1 Denys Arcand Director & screenwriter An Academy Award winning director, Denys Arcand's films have won over 100 prestigious awards around the world.

  • Communiqué Pour La Première Fois En Amérique to BE CONTINUED
    Communiqué Pour la première fois en Amérique TO BE CONTINUED : LE CINÉMA DE DEMAIN S’ÉCRIT AUJOURD’HUI À MONTRÉAL Montréal, le 6 octobre 2003 – La Reine des Lézards, Les Marchands du Temple et Anna Walentynowicz feront l’objet de longs interrogatoires cette semaine à Montréal. Suspects dans une affaire de meurtre? Non, tout simplement des personnages au cœur de trois des onze scénarios retenus par To Be Continued pour son premier atelier d’écriture cinématographique en Amérique. Autrefois connu sous le nom d’Equinoxe en France, To Be Continued inaugure en fait à Montréal une toute nouvelle formule d’ateliers itinérants. Du 4 au 10 octobre, onze scénaristes, provenant de huit pays, dont le Canada, pourront ainsi bénéficier du regard éclairé de onze professionnels du cinéma issus de cultures différentes. Un dialogue scénariste-intervenant de haut niveau qui veut assurer une résonance internationale aux projets sélectionnés et ainsi augmenter leur chance d’être produits grâce à la qualité du résultat final. De fait, près d’une oeuvre sur trois en ateliers d’écriture se retrouve ensuite sur grand écran, une moyenne des plus impressionnantes. Plusieurs centaines de scénarios ont été soumis au cours de la dernière année à un comité de lecture international et parmi les onze auteurs retenus, on retrouve les Canadiens Patrick Demers (Les Marchands du temple) et Louise Archambault (Familia). Les autres participants proviennent en majorité de l’Europe (Allemagne, Espagne, France et Grande-Bretagne) alors que les États-Unis, l’Australie et la Nouvelle-Zélande sont également représentés. Drame psychologique, thriller, satire sociale, portrait politique : leurs œuvres varient en genres cinématographiques, mais toutes sont « ancrées culturellement avec un potentiel de rencontrer un public international », de l’aveu de Noëlle Deschamps, vice-présidente de To Be Continued.
