Marked in green on the schedule: Screenings specifically tailored for young audiences, with the recommended minimum age indicated.

The rest of the program is generally intended for a “mature” audience. Generally for ages 14 and up, unless otherwise noted: some screenings include a content warning (!) while others are family-friendly for ages 10 and up (*)

For audience members who would like details on sensitive topics featured in the films, you can now refer to the Trigger Warning.

Dans sa chambre encombrée de jouets, sous le regard indifférent de son hamster qui tourne dans la petite roue de sa cage, un enfant s'affaire à un étrange bricolage. Son père passe ses soirées à contempler le ciel étoilé en fumant des cigarettes, sa mère est occupée à la cuisine et au jardin. Ni l'un ni l'autre n'ont remarqué que l'ouvrage de leur fils ressemble à une fusée.

In his bedroom, cluttered with toys, whilst his hamster runs indifferently round the little wheel in its cage, a child is busy working on a strange craft project. His father spends his evenings gazing at the starry sky whilst smoking cigarettes; his mother is busy in the kitchen and in the garden. Neither of them has noticed that their son’s creation looks like a rocket.
