Event Details
ICFF, presented by IC Savings, is teaming up with multicultural media company CHIN Radio/TV, in partnership with Ontario Place and the Embassy of Italy in Ottawa, to launch the all new “Lavazza Drive-In Film Festival”. This exciting event, presented in collaboration with Rogers Communications and Christie Digital, will offer Canadians an opportunity to reintegrate into the social society we once enjoyed, while remaining physically distanced. The international film series, running from July 20th through July 31st, will feature a thoughtfully curated selection of works from some of the countries most affected by the global health crisis, and will revamp the most classic movie-going experience, transforming it into a contemporary film festival.
A different nation will be represented each night at Ontario Place, including France, Spain, China, Russia, the US, the UK, Brazil, India and Canada, with a special “Focus on Italy” series, presented in collaboration with the Istituto Italiano di Cultura a Toronto. A portion of ticket sales will go directly to the Canadian Red Cross to assist with COVID-19 relief efforts.
French movie Spread your wings will be screened at the Festival on July 24th. Spread Your Wings is inspired by the real life story of Christian Moullec, a specialist on the subject of wild geese migration. The visionary scientist and his teenage son, Thomas, embark on an adventure to save the endangered dwarf geese, by guiding them on a new migratory route. The thought of spending the summer in the great outdoors seems like a real nightmare to Thomas, an adolescent obsessed with video games. Surprisingly, this adventure will change his life as well as his relationship with his father. The film presents the beginning of an incredible and perilous voyage towards Norway. This movie from Nicolas Vanier casts Jean-Paul Rouve, Mélanie Doutey and Louis Vasquez.
