Here are some suggestions for cultural activities to do this weekend.

Under the direction of conductor Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the Orchester Métropolitain (OM) offers a superb concert that was filmed at the foot of Alexander Calder’s Trois Disques work at Parc Jean-Drapeau. The performance is punctuated by spectacular shots captured on the shores of the St. Lawrence River. The OM performs three maritime-inspired works, namely La Moldau by Bedrich Smetana, Eko-Bmijwang, which Anishinaabe composer Barbara Assiginaak premiered last summer, and La mer by Claude Debussy.

► Where: Sunday at 9 p.m. on ICI TÉLÉ

They are young. innocent. But a gang of Norwegian children will find dark urges awakening within them as they develop supernatural powers far from adult eyes.

Set somewhere between the cinematic universes of The Children (Tom Shankland) and Chronicle (Josh Trank), The Innocents fascinates as much as it troubles, mixing the codes of psychological thriller with those of horror. We come out of it with a tangible feeling of oppression, but above all a real admiration for the work of filmmaker Eskil Vogt.

► Where: in theaters and on video on demand

There are books that only take an hour to read and that move and make you think as if they were long novels. This is the case of Alone, a superb graphic novel published by La courte scale, delighting both young people and adults. Based on the testimonies of three young immigrants to Canada, Paul Tom recounts the travels, adventures, heartbreaks, losses and encounters that led each of the protagonists towards their new life. Supported by the simple but eloquent illustrations of Mélanie Baillairgé, these three stories of uprooting and forced immigration offer a good starting point for fruitful and important discussions on the themes of racism, homophobia, family, inclusion, war, poverty and hope.
