Winter Claire
For the magazine's twentieth anniversary this year, a series of screenings has been planned on the double bill principle, with the main focus on a selection of rarely-seen films. Other movies in the program are also important milestones in the development of the critics' dialogue within one of Quebec's most dynamic film magazines.
The screening will be followed by a Q&A with the filmmaker, Sophie Bédard Marcotte
As a malfunctioning cargo spaceship is threatening to crash to the Earth, Claire is going through a difficult Winter.
Sophie Bédard Marcotte
Sophie Bédard Marcotte is a filmmaker whose intimate approach leaves room for detours and adventure, bypassing the standards of a more didactic and conventional cinema.
