Canada 2009, 77 min, 35mm, Dir: Denis Villeneuve

Based on the true events that occurred on December 6, 1989, at the Montreal's Polytechnique School, Polytechnique tells us about that specific day through the eyes of two students, Valérie and Jean-François, whose lives have been changed forever, when a young man entered the school with one idea in mind: kill himself and take with him as many women as possible.

Presented in association with the Feminist Research Speakers Series and the Film Studies program at the University of Alberta. There will be an introduction by Dr. Donia Mounsef, Associate Professor in the Department of Drama and a discussion period will follow the 7pm screening on Fri, Nov 27.
