List of works in program

This program, as short, warm, and sweet as a latte, kicks off with Francis Laporte’s I comme Infini, which delves into the contradictions of love. The work captures the broad spectrum of emotions that engulf us during end-of-year family and social gatherings. Following that, Ricardo Trogi’s short film offers a burlesque perspective on Christmas traditions. Lastly, the 1971 work by Micheline “Mousse” Guernon and André Melançon portrays the daily life of a Santa Claus. Un Père Noël comme les autres presents a historical piece on an unconventional profession, flavored with the nostalgic charm of fifty-year-old images.

Let the magic begin
