Avec le FIFEQ

Le Festival International du Film Ethnographique du Québec (FIFEQ) est né en 2003 à l’initiative d’un groupe d’étudiants en anthropologie visuelle de l’université de Montréal. Ce festival unique en son genre et gratuit pour le public, représente une des rares plateformes de diffusion et de promotion du cinéma ethnographique au Canada. Grâce à la généreuse implication bénévole de centaines d’étudiants issus des universités Concordia, McGill, UdeM et de nombreux partenaires, le Festival a réuni depuis seize ans plusieurs milliers de spectateurs animés par la passion du cinéma, de l’anthropologie visuelle, ou simplement par la curiosité de découvrir des pépites du genre ethnographique.
