Cinemania 2012 - 18th Edition



The CINEMANIA Film Festival promotes French-language films. Since its inception in 1995, it has presented its wide audiences with a great number of original and some very remarkable films. The festival has grown from the modest beginnings at The Montreal Museum of Fine Arts into an internationally recognized event. It is one of the largest dedicated French-language feature film festivals in the world solely devoted to premieres in North America, Canada, and Quebec. The Festival features many of the greatest names of French cinema, as well as young and up-and-coming talents.

The festival presents several special events:
- A tribute to the late film director Claude Miller, with his films being screened at the Imperial Cinema on November 2-3, 2012.
- A focus on Belgian cinema, also at the Imperial Cinema on November 5, 2012.
- A meeting with a French actress and film director Sandrine Bonnaire. Many of her films will be shown mainly at the Cinémathèque Quebecoise. Also, there will be a unique opportunity to meet her on November 7, 2012 at the Imperial Cinema at 16:30. This event is preceded by the presentation of the first feature film she directed Maddened by His Absence, which will be screened at 14:45.
