If you want to discover the best of documentary film and to make your voice heard at a major film festival, become one of our student jurors for the 26th edition of the RIDM.
Being part of the student jury at the RIDM is your chance to have an experience worthy of a professional jury. You will watch exactly the same films as our National Feature Film Competition Jury, and you will present the Student Jury Award at our official closing night. You will discover 10 feature films from the National Competition (produced in Canada, but addressing various issues from here and abroad). You will have the chance to be guided through the process by documentary film experts and members of the programming team to help you make your way up until the selection process deliberations. You will be able to attend the opening and closing nights of the festival as well as the activities at the Cinémathèque québécoise.
Requirements :
-
Be a college student;
-
Have a good knowledge of spoken and written French and English;
-
Be available for the 10 screenings, the deliberations and the closing ceremony which will take place from November 15 to 26 (possibility to contact your teachers to justify your absence in advance);
-
Submit a short presentation text by email, explaining your motivations for being part of the Student Jury.
