DIRECTORY OF PARTICIPANTS Espace Québec - Pavilion 127 International Village Esplanade Georges Pompidou Cannes Tel.: +33 (0)4 92 59 02 24 2 Hélène David Once again, Québec artists will shine at the legendary Festival de Cannes. This is a source of pride for everyone in Québec, and a strong testimony to the immense talent of our artists, who create works of a remarkable sensitivity and indisputable beauty. Thanks to its vitality and creativity, our cinema travels to screens and festivals worldwide, garnering broad recognition. Congratulations to all the teams of the shortlisted films. With your passion and vision, you contribute to enhan- cing the international reputation of Québec filmmaking. I also wish to salute the talent of Xavier Dolan, who, after triumphing and inspiring a whole generation of young filmmakers by winning the 2014 Jury Prize, will be the first Quebecer to be member of the jury, a prestigious role, at this year’s festival. Thank you to the artists who contribute to making Québec cinema so rich and unique. Enjoy our cinema! Hélène David Minister of Culture and Communications Minister responsible for the Protection and Promotion of the French Language 3 Monique Simard Québec is proud to see Bleu Tonnerre, Philippe David Gagné and Jean-Marc E. Roy’s short film reach the Directors’ Fortnight selection, along with the feature film Fatima, a France/Québec co-production with Serge Noël - Possibles Média. This year, Québec filmmakers have attained unprecedented recognition at Cannes - with Denis Villeneuve and his feature film Sicario vying for the Palme d’Or, and Xavier Dolan’s historic selection to serve on the feature film jury. It would be unthinkable not to mention the homage being paid to one of Québec’s film classics, a hard-hitting oeuvre that has influenced countless generations of filmmakers: Michel Brault’s Orders. This year, Orders is showing as part of Cannes Classics; in 1975 some 40 years ago at the Festival, it brought home the Best Director Award. This is an amazing time for Québec’s young filmmakers, whose vision and convictions are once again making an impact on the international scene. There is no doubt that these artists, bursting with creativity as they are, contribute enormously to taking our film arts to the next level. Again this year, the Société de développement des entreprises culturelles (SODEC) is pleased to welcome our filmmakers under the Espace Québec umbrella and to support them in establishing key relationships with foreign partners. To this end, our SODEC_LAB_IMMERSION CANNES 2015 program - a learning lab we are enormously proud of - will showcase five promising, talented, young producers, in a partnership with Les Offices jeunesse internationaux du Québec (LOJIQ). SODEC will also be present at the Marché du Film, welcoming and assisting Québec’s many producers, directors, distributors and film industry professionals to make the most of their experience at the event. Congratulations to all the Quebecers who work tirelessly to inspire pride in our film arts - your work is both appreciated and celebrated! Enjoy the movies!
