Chronicle of a Summer, Screening and Discussion

The Concordia Ethnography Lab is excited to partner up with Cinéma Public to screen the audacious and touching film Chronicle of a Summer.

The film is a vanguard work of cinéma-vérité (cinéma of truth), a term coined to refer to both the philosophical and ethnographic inquiries of filmmakers like Jean Rouch and Edgar Morin.

The screening will be followed by a discussion on Cinéma-vérité and Cinéma-direct with Maya Lamothe-Katrapani of the Ethnography Lab and Richard Brouillette, film producer, director, editor and programmer. Two other screenings are scheduled on May 4 and May 12, but the discussion will only be on April 30.
