I was singing the praises of director Yannick G?linas's From Montr?al last year when it was first released and if you missed it then, you have another chance Friday night at the International Festival of Films on Art.
The film is a look at the happening Montreal alt-rock scene that has sprung up in the Arcade Fire era and G?linas made the savvy decision to zero in on the fact that she sees so many Anglo and Franco musicians collaborating. It arrived like a breath of fresh air last fall after that bitter tribal provincial election campaign but since, many have wondered if the film doesn't present perhaps a naive portrait of cultural relations chez nous.
There's lot to discuss, which is why you should be there Friday night. The documentary screens at 6:30 p.m. Friday at the 5e salle of Place des Arts and will be followed by a panel discussion about Anglo/Franco relations on the local music scene with journalists Alexandre Vigneault (who co-wrote the doc with Gelinas), Lorraine Carpenter from CultMTL and moi-meme, along with James Benjamin, co-owner of the recording studio Breakglass Studios. The panel will be chaired by music journo and C'est juste de la TV regular Olivier Robillard Laveaux.
