The New Orleans Film Society put on the 26th New Orleans Film Festival on Wednesday, Oct. 14 through Thursday, Oct. 27.
Arcade Fire celebrated alongside filmmakers and fans on Saturday night at the “This is a Reflektor…Party.”
The Reflektor party went from 10 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 17 to 2 a.m. the next morning at the former Mardi Gras World on the West Bank.
Filmmakers and fans danced on an interactive, neon dance floor while Win Butler of Arcade Fire DJ’d under the name “DJ Windows 98.”
Régine Chassagne, Arcade Fire’s female vocalist, was seen on the dance floor that night.
The party preceded the red carpet screening of “The Reflektor Tapes,” a documentary about Arcade Fire’s most recent album and tour. The screening took place at the Orpheum Theatre.
Butler and Chassagne, who now live in New Orleans, walked the red carpet and spoke after the screening.
