Festival du Nouveau Cinéma (FNC)
Canada
festival
With its unique, offbeat approach, the FNC is a bold, innovative event that brings people together. We shine a spotlight on the world of cinema through works that deconstruct cinematic language to better reinvent it. Since 1971, our mandate has been to support and showcase major productions and provide a springboard for emerging voices in all their diversity and originality by screening over 300 films from 60 different countries.
New trends, groundbreaking narrative and technological perspectives, revelations from Quebec, Canada and around the world, talks, special events and festive parties all await you at the FNC.
