Just like me, were you pissed off because you had to stay in your hometown while the Toronto International Film Festival (Tiff) was happening? Well, it appears that the wait is over! In fact, the Festival du nouveau cinéma (Fnc) - which will be taking place in Montreal from October 7 to 18 - has revealed its line-up of Canadian films. Besides, this goes without saying that most of these films were previously shown at the Tiff.
So here's the list of feature films and (a few) documentaries. By the way, each film's description is taken directly from the media release that was sent to me.
Les Signes vitaux (dir.: Sophie Deraspe)
A film about generosity, humanity and the gift of self in the private moments between a young woman and the old people she meets in the final stages of their lives.Un ange à la mer (Angel at Sea) (dir.
