National Film Board
The National Film Board of Canada will have two feature films in competition at the 28th Montreal International Documentary Festival (RIDM), which runs from November 20 to 30, 2025. The directors will be in attendance for the screenings.
- J'ai perdu de vue le paysage (I Lost Sight of the Landscape), by Montreal director Sophie Bédard Marcotte, has been selected for the National Feature Competition and will be making its North American premiere. The documentary skillfully blurs the boundaries between art and life. A special event inspired by the film will also be held.
- Siksikakowan: The Blackfoot Man (Siksikakowan: l'homme pied-noir), by Blackfoot filmmaker Sinakson Trevor Solway from the Siksika community, will have its Quebec premiere in the Magnus Isacsson Competition. With tenderness and grace, the film offers an intimate exploration of Indigenous masculinity rarely seen on screen.
The NFB will also take part in various activities at the festival's Forum RIDM for industry professionals.
