| FACE TO FACE: ETGAR KERET | |
| Etgar Keret is well-known internationally as a writer of offbeat, fragmentary short stories. His latest collection, The Nimrod Flipout, has been highly praised in the U.S. and British media, and his debut directorial feature effort, scripted and co-directed by his partner Shira Geffen, is a similarly mosaic composition.
With Etgar Keret. Hosted by Paul Kennedy. Duration: 1:15 CBC Blue, Consulat général d'Israël à Montréal |

| ERRANCE, DÉRACINEMENT ET IDENTITÉ | |
| Au début des années 1980, la littérature québécoise a subi une transformation majeure : l'émergence de la littérature migrante. Maintenant remise en question par les critiques et les auteurs, qu'est devenue l'écriture migrante au Québec ? Quatre auteurs "migrants" s'interrogent sur cette question et sur les thèmes récurrents à leurs oeuvres fictives et poétiques (errance, exil, lieu et identité). With Salah Benlabed, Daniel Castillo Durante, Joël Des Rosiers, Maya Ombasic. Hosted by Marie-Andrée Lamontagne. Duration: 1:15 |
