Guests
Katrine Choquette Réalisatrice
Currently pursuing a Master’s degree in Film at University of Montreal, Katrine Choquette develops a filmmaking practice at the intersection of documentary and experimental cinema. Her work explores memory, archives, and intimate storytelling, focusing on familial, religious, and collective traces. Through hybrid forms blending essay, documentary, and fiction, she questions transmission, silence, and the persistence of images within contemporary imagination.

Antoine Boulanger Réalisateur | Whisky-Roméo
Antoine Boulanger is a Quebec director and screenwriter who has been active since 2021. He develops an intimate and sensory cinema, based on the organic relationship between the camera and the actor, the power of the unsaid, and the exploration of movement, both physical and internal. His works take shape through encounters between characters who are polar opposites, in worlds imbued with nostalgia and marked by the presence of nature and aerospace references. Through these elements, he explores the themes of isolation, vertigo, and the quest for transcendence.

Passionate about culture and society, Emmanuelle Roberge's artistic practice is rooted in an intimate social approach.
