Canadian Film Day on April 20th was an amazing day for all of Canada and a magical evening for Cinéfranco.
At the beginning of the evening, despite a chilly wind, the sun was shining on the moviegoers going into THE ROYAL cinema and thrilled to meet each other.
Moving testimonies about the late Jean-Marc Vallée made the audience vibrate with emotion as they rediscovered or discovered the restored version of the film C.R.A.Z.Y. with English subtitles.
Cinéfranco was very proud to partner with REEL CANADA for this exceptional day that brought together all lovers of Canadian cinema.
Thank you to the warm enthusiasm of the dear Cinéfranco faithful.
Have a great summer full of good cinema!
