Join us on September 7th for a Backyard Movie Night!
Order of Events:

Starting at 8PM, the RMG, in collaboration with DRIFF, will be showing Chandler Levack’s, “I Like Movies”, a comedy-drama based in the 2000s about a teenage cinephile who works at a video store, is eager to be a filmmaker and let’s everybody know it.
Bring a chair or a blanket and get cozy for a night at the movies. Enjoy good eats from Bollywood Tacos.
Chandler Levack grew up in Burlington, Ontario and lives in Toronto, where she studied cinema at the University of Toronto and screenwriting at the Canadian Film Centre. She has directed numerous music videos, earning two JUNO nominations, and was a veteran music writer and a current film critic for the Globe & Mail. In 2017, her short film We Forgot to Break Up premiered at TIFF and went on to play SXSW. In 2022, her debut feature film I Like Movies premiered at TIFF, was selected for Canada’s Top Ten Film Festival and won prizes around the world. She is currently working on her second feature Anglophone, a casual hang out movie full of ill-advised sex, drugs and rock n’ roll in the Montreal music scene circa 2011, with Zapruder Films and Banner House Productions.
Join us for an art activity in the lower level of the backyard. We will use acrylic gouache paint to depict iconic movie moments and capture the essence of cinema sights. No experience required!
