Montréal: Festival du Cinéma Israélien de Montréal
LA 7e ÉDITION DU FESTIVAL DU CINÉMA ISRAÉLIEN DE MONTRÉAL (FCIM)
Du 11 au 22 mars
Festival interallié avec l’édition de Paris, encore cette année, nous apporte une programmation riche, audacieuse et diversifiée. À l’image du cinéma israélien. Un minuscule territoire qui produit plus de 15 films par années, des films qui remportent des prix importants dans de nombreux festivals. Plus, des films qui étonnent par leur courage, leur auto-confrontation et la rigueur des démarches cinématographiques.
Le cinéma israélien, un cinéma d’auteur et indépendant.

It’s Not What You Know Its Who You Know
INWYKIWYK
Young adults in Ottawa are coming together on March 10th, 2012 at Mansion Nightclub to attend the largest cancer research fundraising event Canada’s capital has ever seen and give a big “Fuck You” to cancer. The event is almost sold out and is expected to attract over 600 young professionals from various industries and communities all with the goal of raising funds for Cancer research at the Ottawa Regional Cancer Foundation.
INWYKIWYK Inc. created the brand “Fuck Cancer” as a new and innovative movement to get younger generations involved in fighting this disease. The slogan evolved out of a deep contempt for this horrible disease that has caused so much pain to so many families. Honouring the memories of loved ones lost and turning hurt and sorrow into positive action is at the root of INWYKIWYK’s efforts. Last year’s event in Montreal, the second of its kind, attracted 900 attendees and inspired young adults in Miami, Ottawa, Los Angeles, and at the University of Western Ontario to get active in their hometowns. All net proceeds raised go towards cancer research across Canada.
These events have been successful in uniting young adults in an effort to combat a disease which has affected too many lives. “This is an opportunity for young adults from all walks of life across Ottawa to come together and raise money for a disease which has had a significant impact on millions of lives, while making a bold, powerful statement against cancer.” said Samantha Banks. “Entry into the event is in the form of different coloured t-shirts with each colour representing a different form of cancer, giving those attending an opportunity to honour lost loved ones.”
