"Kino" is the Greek word for "movement" and means "film" or "the cinema" in Russian, German and other languages. Born in Montréal in 1998, Kino began as a challenge, made by founding filmmaker Christian Laurence to his friends, to make one short film per month until the year 2000. However, at the end of this period no one wanted to stop and, in fact, Kino had formed into a movement that encouraged filmmakers in groups scattered across Montréal and Europe to "do well with nothing; do even better with a little," and—most importantly—to "do it right now!"
Now VANKINO is part of a network that spans over 50 groups on five continents, with upstarts in other parts of Canada, France, Germany, Belgium, Russia, Brazil, Finland, Bénin, Sénégal, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, Australia. The international Kino network thrives by facilitating travel among the groups (we think of it as a filmmaker exchange program) and compiling our films so that they are screened across many Kino groups and as part of Kino programs in other film festivals internationally. In particular, we collaborate internationally to hold “Kabarets,” which are extravaganzas of filmmaking that last only 48 hours and culminate in public screenings of the pieces that were produced.
VANKINO will have monthly screenings of local and international short movies. The screenings are on the first Sunday of each month at 1181 Davie Street. Doors open at 5pm, and the show starts at 6pm.
Come to show your short movies or just have drink and enjoy the show! |
