LE LOON RANGER DES HUARDS
CANADA (YUKON), 2022, COMEDY-DRAMA, 23 MIN, O.V FRENCH, S.-T. ENGLISH
In Canada's far North-West a library worker caught up in the opiod crisis, observes loons by bike, canoe and by snorkelling. But the loons show up where they cannot possibly be...but can they survive the rapid water level changes of climate change?
GENTLE HUM OF SPRING
CANADA (SASKATCHEWAN), 2022, DRAMA, 10 MIN, O.V FRENCH/ENGLISH, S.-T. ENGLISH
As the spring thaw approaches in Saskatchewan, a young beekeeper struggles to maintain his bee colonies.
BELLE RIVER
CANADA (QUÉBEC)/UNITED STATES, 2022, AUTEUR CINEMA, 11 MIN, O.V FRENCH/ENGLISH, S.-T. FRENCH
2019. Spring flooding in Mississippi hits record highs. In Louisiana, the residents of Pierre-Part are preparing for the worst. Barring an unexpected turn of events, local authorities will soon be forced to open the floodgates of the Morganza Spillway, in order to save the cities of New-Orleans and Bâton-Rouge from further uncontrolled flooding. Faith and resilience are the two best weapons they still have in the face of uncertainty.
UNDERTAKE FOR LIFE
CANADA (ACADIE), 2022, AUTEUR CINEMA, 48 MIN, O.V FRENCH, S.-T. ENGLISH
Despite the somewhat frightening name of their occupation, undertakers are actually charming philosophers and keen observers of life. We only see their somber side, but away from the funeral rites and on camera, they turn out to be amazingly insightful. Their love of life and the living, their dark humour and comforting wisdom are the best remedies against existential despair.
