Producer
Driven by her love for horses, Sophie-Catherine Laflamme became an accomplished rider destined for a brilliant career. In April 2012, her life was turned upside down during a routine practice session. When her horse refused to cross an obstacle, Sophie fell and hit her head violently. Doctors tell her that she won’t be able to breathe on her own, nor move her limbs. From the first moment following her fall, the young woman has been determined to regain her autonomy and climb back in the saddle.
Director
Geneviève Everell, lead owner of Sushi à la maison, is young, vibrant but most of all, she is resilient. In this production, she recounts her extraordinary childhood. Geneviève was raised by a mother who was a drug user and a prostitute. Domestic violence, several moves and school changes could not, in the end, break the woman she was to become. A fascinating and touching story with a good ending.
