notre-père Wednesday 22 at 7pm
A film by Marie-Julie Dallaire
Documentary, 64 min, 2006.
To mark the launch of État d’Urgence, ATSA invites you to the premiere screening of Notre-Père under the big top and on the large outdoor screen, in the company of Pops, the film’s directors Marie-Julie Dallaire and Andrée Blais, and several of the film’s protagonists. Notre-Père provides an intimate look at the life of Pops, aka Father Emmett Johns, a man of faith who has made caring for street youth his life’s work. The film documents the daily goings-on of Pops and his “children”. Pop’s actions and words convey the vision of an intuitive and exceptional man.

Thanks to Téléquébec and Sogestalt for the authorisation to show this film.

A film by Hélène Choquette and Jean-Philippe Duval
Produced by Monique Simard and Marcel Simard (Productions Virage), Yves Bisaillon (NFB) et Luc Martin-Gousset (Point du Jour)
In 2003, 25 million individuals were forced to leave their habitat because of its deterioration. Whether it be in the  Maldives, Brazil or even Canada, the troubled, troubling tales of these uprooted human beings share a similar pattern.

Punk Le Vote 26 at 11pm
A film by Roach Denis
Flashback to a very recent past: Canada is not a democracy, it’s a one-party system run by the Liberal Party of Canada, nicknamed “the world’s most successful political party”. Roach and Starbuck, two hardcore punks from Montreal, decide the time is ripe for “punking the vote” and attacking the status quo by running for election themselves. One preaches reform, the other anarchy. Who’s right?
