Every first Saturday of the month at 6:00 PM, a very recent Francophone film for teens and adults. Action, comedies, romantic stories, or historical adaptations... film lovers won’t be disappointed. English subtitles are available so you can come with your Anglophone family and friends.
A family-friendly film in French, four times a year to mark the passing of the four seasons, in Medicine Hat. A recent film for little ones, but also for parents who’ve kept their inner child alive. English subtitles are available for immersion students and English-speaking parents.
Cinema workshops on various themes designed for French and French immersion schools. Students from Grade 6 to Grade 12 explore topics like: the role of dance in cinema, an introduction to green screen special effects, or modern takes on silent film... A great opportunity for young people to combine artistic expression and film analysis in a fun and interactive setting.
For one week, a group of 8 to 10 young filmmakers discovers every aspect of filmmaking and shoots their own film using professional equipment under the guidance of a film industry expert. Hollywood, here we come! This film camp offers teens a hands-on and immersive experience in the filmmaking process, emphasizing creativity, collaboration, basic technical skills, production organization and logistics, and the development of artistic expression through storytelling, acting, music selection, and video editing.
Fun and interactive after-school workshops that allow children aged 6 to 11 to play at being little filmmakers, nurturing their creativity while learning the basics of animated filmmaking. The little ones will discover the fundamentals of the seventh art and learn age-appropriate film techniques. Each child will take home their very own stop-motion film, created frame by frame, along with a "Young Filmmaker" diploma.
"COUP DE PROJECTEUR" is a Francophone film festival that shines a light on the debut films of directors from diverse backgrounds and origins, judged by a professional jury. Seven French-language films with English subtitles will be offered to cinema lovers. The 2025 edition will take place on December 5, 6, and 7.
A tour across Alberta to meet Francophone Albertan students and show them a film in French appropriate for their age group. 3,100 students participated in 2024, and 4,380 students in 2025.
As part of the VIF (Valorisation d'Initiatives Francophones) program, led by Réseau Dialogue and funded by the Government of Canada, Cinémagine Alberta has received a grant that allows us to offer 60 cinema-themed workshops to Francophone organizations across Alberta, in line with our provincial mission. This initiative is called the CINE-ACADEMY TOUR.
