My name is Vincent Virat, the current head of our Bda's Pole Cinema.
I have always been a movie enthusiast, loving the way movies can touch upon every dimension of our world, often beautifully merging arts and politics. The pole will focus on spreading cinematographic culture on campus as students often forget to watch movies due to either (i) uncontrollable academic workload or (ii) uncontrollable TV series addiction, both are complementary, this is me speaking from experience! For this reason, I will try to organize monthly "rendez-vous Ciné Club" where students will be able to watch either classic or contemporary movies, with the presence of a guest-speaker for debate after the screening. Also, a special partnership with Cinema Opera in Reims will allow Sciences Po students to get "special screenings" at reduced prices, once every month. Of course, the pole will also keep the student body aware of various cinema-oriented events in Reims, such as the "7ème art américain" festival, sometimes offering special student prices! I hope to see you during all these events, we have something to suit every taste! Just like French actress Catherine Deneuve said "That's what I like about film-it can be bizarre, classic, normal, romantic. Cinema is to me the most versatile thing.” |
