Mademoiselle Kenopsia is a Canadian film directed by Denis Côté and released in 2023. The film stars Larissa Corriveau as the "Guardian of Spaces", a woman who is obsessed with watching over and occupying empty spaces.
The cast also includes Evelyne de la Chenelière, Olivier Aubin and Hinde Rabbaj.
According to Côté, the film was inspired in part by the COVID-19 pandemic, and the ways in which it changed society's relationship with public spaces that are normally bustling and busy but were eerily empty and quiet during COVID-related lockdowns.
The film premiered at the 76th Locarno Film Festival in August 2023, and had its Canadian premiere in the Wavelengths program at the 2023 Toronto International Film Festival.
