Nordlys Film & Arts Festival returns to the historic Bailey Theatre this weekend. As usual, this endearing annual festival will present an eclectic blend of films from Canada and around the world. For the past 15 years, the festival has offered guests a unique opportunity to engage with talented filmmakers representing award-winning films, originating from some 35 countries. Friday evening’s Opening Night film, Shepherds, is based on a true story; it was awarded the 2024 Best Canadian Feature Film Award at TIFF (Toronto International Film Festival). The film stars Félix-Antoine Duval as Mathyas, a burned-out advertising executive from Montreal, who moves to southern France to become a shepherd.
