Radio-Canada and Québec Cinéma regretfully announce that the 2020 edition of GALA QUÉBEC CINÉMA, scheduled for Sunday June 7, must be cancelled due to the current circumstances which make such a large-scale gathering impossible.
Radio-Canada and Québec Cinéma are committed to promoting the works and talent of local creators and artisans who have enabled us to experience a particularly prosperous film year.
