*****This app uses location features and markers that are only accessible to users in Winnipeg, Manitoba.*****

This is an app developed for the Cinémental 25 event in Winnipeg, Manitoba in which users can explore Winnipeg to unlock the history of the festival.

Cinémental is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year! Explore Winnipeg french community and unlock facts about our vibrant history. Unlock a world you may not know much about through Augmented Reality.

While many festivals have event apps that help you find screenings and book tickets, the “Cinémental 25” App goes beyond that by featuring a unique, location-based poster hunting game that will tell the story of our festival year by year from locations around Winnipeg that impacted us most.

Part interactive history book, part tour of the city, this app comes jam-packed with content taken from deep in our archives that can be discovered from over 30 locations.

Win prizes by playing! For every 5 posters you discover, you can be entered into a draw for prizes, including seasons passes to next year’s festival.
