La fête des rois
Producer
...Comme un voleur
Producer
A garagist must take care of his sick mother and irresponsible brother.
Bye Bye Victor
Producer
Friendship between two old men becomes love. Slightly-unkempt, tired, and frail, Philippe Lanctot moves into a rest home. The administrator says she wants him to be happy, but that seems far from his mind: he's waiting to die. Then, into his room, unannounced, rolls the voluble Victor Laprade, who draws out Philippe over the next few months. Victor gives Philippe the gift of experiencing the moment. In return, the well-heeled Philippe organises field trips to dinner and to a botanical garden, and, unknown to Victor, becomes the man's benefactor when Victor's children get stingy. The openly-gay Victor also pushes Philippe to acknowledge feelings he's always kept suppressed.
Jesus of Montreal
Producer
En Montreal, un joven artista acepta la propuesta de un sacerdote para representar la Pasión de Cristo en los jardines de la parroquia, interpretando él mismo el papel de Jesús. No tardan en darse lugar las desavenencias entre el equipo artístico y la comunidad parroquial.
The Shimmering Beast
Administration
A documentary film about a group of hunters who gather annually to hunt moose near Maniwaki, Quebec.
The Skiff of Renald and Thomas
Administration
Five men work together in a communal effort to build a skiff on Ile-aux-Coudres, an island in the St. Lawrence River. It is built in a traditional fashion, all the more remarkable because no blueprint is used. The film does not merely record a building tradition, it reveals the character of the craftsmen, who are influenced by a pre-industrial way of life underscored by spontaneity and wit.
Back to the Land
Administration
Feature-length documentary as part of Pierre Perrault's Abitibian Cycle. The filmmaker questions the past and present of Abitibi and draws up, face to face, the promises of colonization in the 1930s and the great disappointment caused by the closing of the land in the 1970s. There are witnesses to the heroic era, including the cultivator Hauris Lalancette, as well as extracts from films by Father Maurice Proulx (1934-1940).
Sens Devant Derrière
Producer
An ordinary man wakes up in a world upside down! Illegible newspaper, people backing up, cars backing up: nothing is the same anymore, but everything seems to be going well.
