35th World Film Festival Montreal

For the 33rd year in a row, an Ecumenical Prize is awarded by the Ecumenical Jury, chaired by Ms. Cindy Mollaret from France, included Mr. Paul Da Silva from Toronto, Ms. Niquette Delage, from Montreal, Mr. Louis Lesage, from Montreal and Ms. Denyse Muller from France.

The Ecumenical Prize recompenses movies which show artistic merit, the exploration of ethical, social and spiritual values that make life human. The word "ecumenical" refers to the fact that this jury is jointly sponsored by both Protestant and Catholic international organizations for cinema: INTERFILM and SIGNIS (www.signis.net).

The international organizations are represented in Montréal by Interfilm-Montréal and by Communications et Société (www.officecom.qc.ca), a member association of SIGNIS.
