While drive-in movie theatres are a blast, they also require access to a car. Cinéma sous les étoiles, an annual free documentary festival, solves that problem by bringing outdoor screenings to Montreal parks for movie nights under the stars.

Funambules Médias announced today that Cinéma sous les étoiles is coming back this summer for its 12th edition with 30 outdoor documentary screenings in a dozen Montreal parks.
