Tonight! – Ottawa Animation; Tomorrow – Bastille Day

Friday, July 15, 2011 – Tonight, we show the latest edition of the always-popular Best of Ottawa International Animation Festival. Get tickets here. This is a great way to get a nice survey of contemporary trends in animation, and there’s usually a mix of laughs, profundity and pure abstraction.

On Saturday, we have our ninth annual Bastille Day celebration, with Jacque Becker’s Casque d’or. Tickets are here. Take a break from any memorial prison-storming you might have planned and see this Belle Époque tragedy.
