The Nocturnes, access to Quebec author cinema at the Sutton School of Art

In partnership with the Sutton School of Art, the Town of Sutton is offering exclusive free tickets to Sutton residents and homeowners to attend film screenings as part of Les Nocturnes. Spectators can look forward to a lively atmosphere, with activities including a refreshment bar with popcorn and snacks, a thrift sale, an exhibition of children’s artworks and surprise musical performances before the film is presented by the filmmaker or a member of the production team, and then screened at sunset. Please note that most films will be presented in their original French with English subtitles.

The next event is on Friday, August 2, with the presentation of the following film productions:

BIRDIE, a 11-minute short film directed by Alexandre Lefebvre.
During his round of golf, Marcel finally manages to summon up the courage to invite Joanne, the canteen-worker on the 9th hole, to share a romantic evening. Little did he know that this encounter would create such a shockwave. 18 holes. 693 kilometers. 2 golf bags. 1 newfound love.

LES TRICHEURS a 90-minute feature film directed by Louis Godbout.
Florence, Hubert and André meet for a round of golf on a fine summer afternoon. The first two are a couple, while André is a close friend and business partner of Hubert’s, so it’s an intimate gathering, a time to relax in an atmosphere of warm complicity. Then Michel, a solitary golfer with a special charisma, arrives to shake up the trio’s beautiful harmony and bring out the reality hidden beneath appearances.
