Universal Language

Directed by Matthew Rankin (Canada, 2024, 89 min.). Farsi and French with English subtitles. With nods to the stylistic precision of Iranian and French New Wave films, this absurd and cozy comedy from director Matthew Rankin is set in an alternative version of Winnipeg where Farsi is the official language. Its world is populated by odd characters whose lives interweave in surprising and mysterious ways, creating a surreal comedy of misdirection that gently subverts the rules of time and space. Universal Language is Canada’s Oscar entry for Best International Feature Film, and won of the Audience Award at Cannes Fortnight.

Location : Harry and Mildred Remis Auditorium (Auditorium 161)
