Jean V. Dufresne

Premier long métrage de fiction de Gilles Groulx, dans lequel il intègre les méthodes du direct. Le casting est composé d’acteurs non professionnels, les dialogues sont improvisés et le tournage en continuité réalisés dans des décors naturels assurent la spontanéité et l’authenticité propres aux productions documentaires. À travers la confrontation d’un couple dans la vingtaine, ce film pose la grande question de l'accession à la maturité politique du peuple québécois telle que perçue par un cinéaste épris d'idéal et d'absolu.

She is a nightclub entertainer, in her way a highly successful exponent of her art, but there are moments when the admiration of her Montréal following is not enough. 'Fabienne' is the portrait of a woman who, having achieved enviable fame, is still far from content.

Backyard Theatre is a documentary about playwright Michel Tremblay and director André Brassard’s flavourful brand of Quebec theatre, which captured the earthy wit and joual (slang) of Montreal's East End working-class neighbourhood. The film features impromptu improvisation by the cast of Les belles-soeurs and Demain matin, Montréal m'attend, two genre-defining plays.

This documentary film is an exploration of Québec’s feature film industry. The film takes a look at the people who have succeeded in this unique milieu (Geneviève Bujold is one) or failed; at its movies, which run the gamut from hard-core skinflicks to such highly acclaimed films as Mon Oncle Antoine, and at its audiences, which number in the millions.
