Artist's talk ONF x Sommets | Marielle Dalpé
We know the event, the festival organized by the Cinémathèque québécoise presenting the best of animation film. But the Sommets also host a series of animated events held at the Cinémathèque or elsewhere, and which showcase new releases as well as memorable films from the past, short and feature films, screenings at the indoors and outdoors, film lessons and other events.
To be kept up to date with its annual programming, visit the Sommets website.
The NFB and the Sommets du cinéma d’animation are pleased to invite you to an artist’s talk with Marielle Dalpé.
The filmmaker will share the creative and experimental process behind her latest film, Aphasia, during this one-hour presentation.
A graduate of the Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema at Concordia University, Marielle Dalpé is an artist and animation director. She creates a wide range of visual content, from animation films, to illustration, to graphic novels, to theatre scenography.
In 2023, she completed her film Aphasia, a short, striking, non-narrative film that aims to re-create the experience of aphasia for the audience. The film is poetic, and sensitively represents the reality of people with Alzheimer’s who suffer from aphasia.
Marielle Dalpé received a Special Mention for Aphasia at the 2020 Sommets du cinéma d'animation's Pitch Contest!
