Cinéma flottant

Things to do at the Parc Aquatic Complex

The complete english version will be available soon.

Cet été, redécouvrez le plaisir du cinéma en plein air avec une activité aussi originale que rafraîchissante : le Cinéma flottant.

À la tombée du jour, le Complexe aquatique du parc Jean-Drapeau se transforme en une salle de projection à ciel ouvert. Les cinéphiles, petits et grands, sont invités à regarder un film depuis la piscine, confortablement installés sur une bouée.

Aucun équipement n'est nécessaire : il suffit d'enfiler votre maillot de bain, de laisser vos soucis au vestiaire et de vous laisser flotter. Les bouées sont fournies sur place pour garantir un moment de détente et de divertissement inoubliable dans l'un des lieux les plus emblématiques de Montréal.

C'est l'occasion idéale de prolonger votre journée au parc Jean-Drapeau ou d'y revenir pour vivre une expérience de cinéma unique, les pieds dans l'eau et la tête dans les étoiles.

Horaire et films

Doors 7 p.m.
Film screenings 7:30 p.m.

Les projections commencent à la tombée du jour, entre 19 h 30 et 20 h, selon les conditions d'éclairage naturel.


1995

Tuesday, July 8

Alors qu'il est sur le point d'abandonner son rêve de devenir cinéaste, Ricardo est choisi pour participer à l'émission « La Course », une compétition envoyant huit globetrotteurs en herbe à la découverte du monde.

Lorsqu'il débarque au Caire, en Égypte, toutes les conditions et les malchances sont malheureusement réunies pour donner du fil à retordre à Ricardo. À la recherche d'un sujet pour une vidéo qu'il doit livrer en un temps record, le jeune homme décide de sortir de sa zone de confort, et de proposer cette fois-ci un reportage sur un enjeu beaucoup plus sérieux et délicat.

Durée : 119 minutes
Un film de Ricardo Trogi

Flow

Tuesday, August 12

Un chat se réveille dans un univers envahi par l'eau où toute vie humaine semble avoir disparu. Il trouve refuge sur un bateau avec un groupe d'autres animaux.

Mais s'entendre avec eux s'avère un défi encore plus grand que de surmonter sa peur de l'eau! Tous devront désormais apprendre à surmonter leurs différences et à s'adapter au nouveau monde qui s'impose à eux.

Durée : 84 minutes
Un film de Gints Zilbalodis ayant remporté plusieurs prix à l'international, incluant l'Oscar du meilleur film d'animation
