Cinematography
Barely 20 years after the Sydney Olympics when water polo was first opened to female athletes, Canadian national team polo players are getting ready for the Tokyo Games, following paths barely trodden by their predecessors. Aiming to be both immersive and contemplative, this documentary transports the audience in the middle of a match, on the players' bench, between the stands and the surface.
Director
In a village at the tip of Nova Scotia, an Acadian community of 2,000 inhabitants is preparing to begin yet another lobster fishing season. The fishermen are preparing all year round for this great return to school day, on the verge of their feet, all waiting for the Atlantic wind to finally calm down, to be able to weigh anchor.
The Cowboy
A cowboy walks alone in the city. As he wanders in the night, he wonders about the past. He’s got those lonesome blues.
Technical Advisor
The Plaza Saint-Hubert was long shunned by the petty-bourgeoisie of Montreal for its too "kitsch" allure or the questionable choices of town planning which shaped the layout of its facades. However, the biome of the Plaza is no longer resisting the tendencies of gentrification that are affecting the city of Montreal as a whole. This short film focuses on the real open wound that is the repair site of the mythical Plaza. An incongruous universe where wedding dresses dance with mechanical shovels.
