Screening “Women, Drums and Resilience”

Screening of Joseph Bitamba’s film — An evening dedicated to cinema, culture, and resilience.

Launch of the new professional support program for artists and screening of Bitamba’s latest documentary (1h28min) FR.

Come and discover the Permanence Hivernale program. On this occasion, we will screen Joseph Bitamba’s latest documentary film, a Toronto premiere. This film explores the role of the drum, an instrument of resilience carried by Indigenous and Rwandan women. Through these voices, the film highlights powerful cultural and spiritual connections.

Joseph Bitamba, director and member of Le Labo, is currently in Rwanda for his shoot and is working on establishing a film school there.

This screening is part of an effort to highlight engaged artistic practices and memory-bearing narratives. It offers a moment of encounter between the public and a work deeply rooted in contemporary cultural and social realities.

It certainly took a great artist to inaugurate Toronto's smallest gallery with Ron Loranger.
