In January 2024, as part of a program leading up to its acquisition of a new long lease on its premises 31 March 2024, Cinéma Nova opened its program with a screening of Le chantier des gosses, along with Harlez' first, Quand chacun apporte sa part (1954). Both Harlez and his wife Marcelle Dumont, who was screenwriter for the films, were present at the screening.[5]
