Presented in English / Conférence en anglais
Offrez-vous une pause-café et joignez-vous à nous pour une causerie d’après-midi avec Chase Joynt (FRAMING AGNES) et Aisling Chin-Yee (CELLES QUI RESTENT) qui ont réalisé NO ORDINARY MAN, leur documentaire reconnu. Ils nous parleront de l’approche qu’ils ont adoptée pour leur montage.
Ce film sensible entremêle de façon naturelle des images d’archive, des enregistrements audio, des témoignages et des interprétations artistiques pour raconter l’histoire de Billy Tipton, un musicien de jazz éminent des années 1940 et 1950 et une icône de la culture trans.
L’événement sera modéré par la monteuse accomplie Catherine Legault (REBELS ON POINTE).
Rejoignez-nous à 19h HAE dans le salon virtuel pour discuter et réseauter!
Un lien pour visionner le film sera envoyé quelques jours avant l’événement : restez à l’affût!
Les profits de cet événement seront versés à The 519.
