| Festival du nouveau cinéma | |
The 2021 edition of the Festival du nouveau cinéma, the 50th edition in the event's history, took place from October 6 to 17, 2021 in Montreal, Quebec, Canada.[1] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic in Quebec, it was staged as a hybrid event, with a mixture of in-person and online screenings; although the festival officially concluded on October 17, the online platform remained open until October 31.[2]
The festival opened with the film Bootlegger by Caroline Monnet, and closed with Félix Dufour-Laperrière's film Archipelago (Archipel).[3] Marking the 50th anniversary of the festival, Bootlegger was also paired with 50 temps, a short documentary film about the festival by Luc Bourdon.[4]
Award winners were announced on October 18 at the conclusion of the festival.[2]
