It was again a great honour this past week for CINEMANIA to take part in the 14th edition of the American film festival “Focus on French Cinema” (FFC) that took place in Greenwich, Connecticut, from April 27th through May 1st.
CINEMANIA attended together with talented Quebecois actors, notably Noah Parker, co-star of AILLEURS, a feature film by Samuel Matteau.
The American audience at the premiere were able to participate in a Q & A hosted by program director Joe Mayers, together with Noah Parker and Guilhem Caillard, managing director of CINEMANIA, and gain insight about the young actor’s co-starring role as a fragile adolescent who escapes his melancholic life in Quebec City to go live in California. Parker also revealed his next project – the eagerly awaited PAUVRE GEORGES, the latest film by Claire Devers opening in Fall 2018 (co-produced by Richard Lalonde of Forum Films)
ACCLAIMED QUEBEC FILMMAKING
Representing Quebec at the Greenwich festival, CINEMANIA also chose to screen HOCHELAGA, TERRE DES AMES by Francois Girard, a feature film that won 4 “Canadian Screen Awards” as well as 10 nominations at the “Iris Gala”.
Audiences greatly appreciated two films starring talented Quebec actress Suzanne Clément – LE SENS DE LA FETE by Olivier Nakache and Eric Toledano and LE RIRE DE MA MERE by Colombe Savignac and Pascal Ralite.
TOUT NOUS SEPARE was among a prestigious group of films selected from CINEMANIA 2017 by “Focus on French Cinema”. The film was presented in person by its director, Thierry Klifa, who conducted a master class for Greenwich audiences.
