 oon there will be more film festivals than films. From genre and niche extravaganzas to celebrity-culling, bright-light and champagne affairs, film festivals continue to expand. However, only a handful are worth your popcorn dollars. One example: Festival du Nouveau Cinema (FNC). Now in its 37th year it continues to broaden the cinematic horizons of Montrealers.
From October 8th until October 19th, the fest will show plethoric off-the-beaten track films sourced from at home and abroad. Look for the quirky, the strange, the familiar, and the avant garde.
This year's list includes entries from heavy hitters like Philippe Garrel (La Frontière de l'Aube), Deepha Mehta (Heaven on Earth), and Atom Egoyan (Adoration); also, ascending directors like Cannes golden boy, Steve McQueen (Hunger), and friend of Bonnie Prince Billy, Kelly Reichardt (Wendy and Lucy) are also represented. Although, the true joy of FNC is always happenstance finds, so see everything that you can.
