Following the government headlines, they positioned our area in a yellow zone; we were relieved to learn that we could maintain our Festival du cinéma international en Abitibi-Témiscamingue inside the theatre.

Due to our actual context, we postponed the dates of the launch of our program and the ticket sale of one week. We are playing with creativity and adaptation, following the daily updates of the government measures.

The release of our complete program will happen on Tuesday, October 20^th, and the ticket sale will start on Thursday, October 22^nd at 9 AM.

Be reassured that the details of the ways to purchase tickets and the measures in place for the duration of the Festival will be provided before the ticket sale, by three mediums: on our website, on our Facebook page and our newsletter.

We remind you that there will be no passports or packages sold this year.

We are convinced that our offer to the festivalgoers is the best of the cinematographic world, together, indoors and safely. Our motto: from shadow workers, we now become light workers, mandated to bring hope and happiness in these challenging days.
