Organized in collaboration with the Sciences Po Law School, ‘Eating Popcorn like a Lawyer’ is a seminar series that seeks to establish a continuous dialogue between the fields of law and film. 

For our fall session, we have invited Chanelle Lajoie (Filmmaker & ۲ݮƵ BCL/JD student) for a special screening and discussion of their short films Metis Femme Bodies (2019), Grand Mother Tongue (2020), and Land (Ab)use (2022), accompanied by Kevin Lee Burton’s short film, Nikamowin (song) (2007).  

Chanelle Lajoie is a Queer Red River Métis and Swampy Cree Feminist and Futurist from Treaty 1 Territory. They are a guest on Tiohti:áke Territory while pursuing legal studies at ۲ݮƵ University. Moving-image invites balance in their life by honoring and engaging with the communities to which they belong. Their ties to community are explored in their films, which invite reflection and discussion on Spirit, gender, sexuality, femininity, Indigeneity, language, community, the Anthropocene, and trust building.  

Free event/No registration. Open to all! Come as you are! Popcorn and Bepsi will be served!
