This all-French-language program features journeys of all shapes and sizes. From a nervous spider to a boy who wants to do ballet, these shorts will make you reflect on life's greatest challenges and joys.
To accommodate evolving public health recommendations regarding COVID-19, we are adopting a hybrid virtual-and-in-person festival model for CFFS 2022. VIRTUAL, IN-PERSON, and HYBRID (virtual AND in-person) Festival Passes are available here.
⚠️ For the sake of public safety, NWFF patrons ages 5+ will be required to present proof of COVID-19 vaccination and to double-mask while in the building. Disposable masks are available at the door for those who need them. ⚠️
NWFF is adapting to evolving recommendations to protect the public from COVID-19. Read more about their policies regarding cleaning, masks, and capacity limitations here. We reserve the option to shift the festival to virtual-only on short notice.
Alice, a nine-year-old girl who lives in the countryside, faces a family breakdown when her father leaves home. Disruptions from the grownups in her life destabilize Alice's poetic imagination, and color her carefree life spent playing with her friend Leo out in nature. She responds by becoming independent, devising a plan to move far away and live alone aboard a glider in the sky. But – wouldn't that be lonely? How would she see Leo?
