Join us for a Francophone movie night, as we get together to enjoy a selection of 3 short films from French-speaking countries (Belgium, Switzerland, and Canada/Québec).
OUR SHORT FILMS
Cette Mélodie N’a Pas de Fin | Belgium | 2022 | 18min | In French, with English subtitles.
SYNOPSIS: Janne and Julia are in love. Julia leaves for three years to study taxidermy. Janne promises to write a song for her return. The day before Julia gets back, Janne’s heart gives out. Well... almost. And that’s a shame, because it's not a good idea to be dead at a reunion.
L’Artificier | Switzerland | 2023 | 15min | In French, with English subtitles.
SYNOPSIS: Raphael, recently left by his wife, does not dare to explain their recent separation to his six-year-old son Timotei. As Timotei keeps asking questions about his mother's absence, Raphael decides to improvise a party in the garden for the Swiss bank holidays! A clumsy way to make up for the absence.
An exclusive pre-recorded interview with the film director, Nikita Trocki, will be shown.
À toi les oreilles | Québec | 2024 | 13min | In French, with English subtitles
SYNOPSIS: While the townsfolk are celebrating the village's anniversary parade, Étienne tries the impossible: to show them how beautiful his family’s cacophony really is.
Before the films, enjoy refreshments with Swiss wine & cheese, Québec Leclerc cookies, and Lesser Evil popcorn.
