The Forgotten War
Le cardinal Bégin
It seems that Canada don't want to hear about their heroes of the two World Wars, especially in Quebec. In English, La Guerre oubliée means The Forgotten War. Here, we talk about the 1914-18 big thing. This documentary doesn't use old footage, but actors to show us some parts of that war in Quebec. Joe Bocan sings some songs of that period and makes the narrations. There's also some rare veterans of the war who talk.
The Late Blossom
30-year-old Quebec City native Gisèle lives a quiet life as a secretary without happiness with her parents and siblings. One day, tired of being teased by her office mates, she decides to consult a marriage agency to find her soul mate.
El rastro

Entretanto, los investigadores llegan a la conclusión de que una víctima profesa la religión católica. Uno de los clientes, indaga a una prostituta, preguntándole si pertenece a esa religión y podría existir la presencia de satanismo....con suspenso, buena música compuesta por la protagonista -Karen Black- se despliega la película que tiene un cierto decaimiento hacia la hora de irradiación aproximadamente sin que surjan acontecimientos demasiado sustanciales pero con una resolución interesante e inesperada que levanta el film.
Kamouraska
Paul Hus
A writer, Kamouraska is based on a real nineteenth-century love-triangle in rural Québec. It paints a poetic and terrifying tableau of the life of Elisabeth d'Aulnières: her marriage to Antoine Tassy, squire of Kamouraska; his violent murder; and her passion for George Nelson, an American doctor. Passionate and evocative, Kamouraska is the timeless story of one woman's destructive commitment to an ideal love.

Louis-Joseph Papineau: The Demi-God
Elzear Bedard
This short drama is a portrait of Quebec lawyer and politician Louis-Joseph Papineau (1786-1871). A proud, defiant man, skillful in parliamentary debate, and Speaker of the Lower House, his heart was with the people being pillaged by the business elite. When legislation became the instrument of private advantage, Papineau brought government to a standstill. - NFB
