The raison d’être of the Cinéma Parallèle is to fulfill a need in Quebec for a theatre whose mandate is the presentation and promotion of independent film and to offer an alternative to Montreal’s network of commercial theatres. The works presented are fresh, visionary, and daring; they stand as a testimony to their era, and to our cultural development as a whole.

After more than four decades of successfully promoting an innovative vision of independent cinema and video art, the Cinéma Parallèle is stronger than ever. It has remained true to its partnerships and has established a solid foundation for cinema, giving it a privileged place on Montreal’s cinematic landscape. More than just a theatre, the Cinéma Parallèle is an ally of film and video connoisseurs in Quebec.
