Public : Adults
Join us at the Alliance Française de Glasgow for a screening of the French film Les algues vertes / Green Tide, directed by Pierre Jolivet.
'Face au silence soigneusement gardé autour des algues vertes sur les côtes bretonnes, la journaliste Inès Léraud décide d'enquêter. En rencontrant scientifiques, agriculteurs et politiques, elle met le doigt dans l'engrenage impitoyable de l'industrie agroalimentaire et de ses intérêts qui n'ont que faire de l'humain et de l'environnement.'
'Following the recent deaths of locals on Breton beaches, a reporter comes to investigate the mystery surrounding algae that may be a
cause of these tragic events. As evidence is being covered up and threats to her research mount up, she realizes that some politicians with
close ties to prominent local corporations are working to stop her from uncovering the shocking truth.'
Public : Babies/ Toddlers
Join our librarian for a fun-filled session of lively songs, rhymes, and stories, perfect for little ones. With Clotilde, our talented accordionist, adding enchanting melodies, this interactive experience will delight both children and adults.
Together, we’ll explore the theme ‘Célébrons la nature’ (Let’s Celebrate Nature)!
- End of April: Exhibition in Partnership with La Belle Adventure – Cabaret Vert Comics Prize
In collaboration with La Belle Adventure, we are pleased to present a special exhibition showcasing the comic prize dedicated to the Cabaret Vert festival 2024. This exhibition will be displayed in the hallway and celebrates the intersection of art and eco-responsibility.
About Le Cabaret Vert: ‘Eco-responsibility is not just a trend – it’s a shared responsibility and
the heart of the Cabaret Vert festival. Founded with the goal of raising awareness about environmental issues, the festival integrates
sustainability across every aspect—music, cinema, comics, performances, food, drinks, hospitality, and beyond. The Cabaret Vert thrives on
principles of sustainable development, solidarity, and respect for its ecological, social, and economic ecosystem.’
