Film Replay A captivating documentary followed by a discussion led by Lorna Roth and Adam Symansky.
A New Monthly Activity at the Liz!
Each month, a captivating documentary will be screened in the cinema, followed by a lively group discussion. This monthly activity is organized by two of our residents: Lorna Roth and Adam Symansky.
The first screening took place on Wednesday, June 18 at 2:00 p.m.
A replay will be offered on June 25 at 7:00 p.m., also in the cinema.
We’ll be showing A License to Remember: Je me souviens, a National Film Board documentary that is original, humorous, thought-provoking, and bold. In the film, director Thierry Le Brun, a recent newcomer to Quebec, travels across the province to discover what the motto "Je me souviens" truly means to Quebecers. Along the way, he meets a wide variety of people — both well-known and unknown — who offer diverse and personal perspectives on the phrase.
"Je me souviens" becomes a kind of Rorschach inkblot in which each Quebecer sees their own interpretation, revealing the rich and complex identities that make up Quebec society.
The film is presented in English with French subtitles.
