With Denis Côté (Mademoiselle Kenopsia, Wilcox, Les états nordiques)

Member $60 | Non-member $90


There are no set conventions for making documentary fiction, so how do you find your way around? What are the challenges involved in scriptwriting, shooting and editing? This workshop will help you ask the right questions so you can embark on the adventure of hybrid filmmaking. Lessons will be based on concrete examples from the instructor’s own films, such as Wilcox and Les états nordiques.

The Fiction cycle continues through the winter! To see the full program, please visit the Events & Workshops page. For other information, please send an email to: services@mainfilm.qc.ca


Denis Côté

Denis Côté founded Nihilproductions in the ’90s and shot some fifteen short films. He worked as a journalist and film critic before directing his first feature Les états nordiques in 2005. This was followed by Nos vies privées in 2007, which toured the international festival circuit. Carcasses (2009) was presented at the Cannes Directors’ Fortnight, while Curling, his fifth feature, won top honors at the Locarno Festival in 2010. Vic+Flo ont vu un ours (2013) won the Silver Bear at the Berlinale in Germany for its innovation. Denis Côté’s singular films have been shown at hundreds of cinematic events, and have been the subject of some 40 retrospectives around the world.
