MORINE
(Tony Farjallah)
6:00pm
The year is 620 A.D., North Lebanon. Living with God is men’s privilege and the most unreachable women’s right. Stubborn as she is, the 20 year-old revolutionary girl breaks the rules and endures all the consequences.
She would accept, fight and do anything to win her right as a woman to live and serve in the house of God.

LES CEDRES DU LIBAN
(Frederic Nassif)
8:00pm
Defying preconceptions about the integration of immigrants in Quebec, LES CÈDRES DU LIBAN tells a story of hope, openness to the world and acceptance of others, from icy Quebec to warm Lebanon. We get a close-up look at a double quest: to mitigate the prejudices that exist in Quebec, and to introduce hockey to Lebanon, where our characters are greeted as strange beings.
