All over North America young people are rejecting orthodoxy of all kinds and embracing new cults, new forms of self-discovery, from Krishna to bio-feedback. Group dynamics, encounter groups, transcendental meditation, Eastern philosophy, communal living, return-to-nature, re-energized evangelism--all are roads to salvation according to the individual's belief. This film takes a discerning look at them all, from Canada to California.

In this documentary, giants of italian cinema such as Rossellini, De Sica, Fellini and Zavattini talk about the importance of cinema after WW2, and about huge moments of social rebellion. This movie gives the floor to the creators of italian neorealism.

This documentary takes us on a journey of discovery through the words of young girls, members of the work team at Wuchang station, who spontaneously answer the filmmaker's questions. In these words and confidences, a concern emerges: to be first and foremost at the service of the Chinese people. Collective life takes priority over individual or family life. And when you get married, you agree to see your spouse only when their respective workplaces and schedules coincide...

Behind every word, every look, a new being to get to know.

Edited from almost 100 km of film footage shot during the Games, this feature documentary is a breathtaking portrait of the 1976 Montreal Olympics. Much more than a simple record of the Games, the film approaches each event with the intention of revealing the athlete - whether winner or loser - as a unique individual.

Compilation film of the three shorts: "Caroline", "Françoise", and "Solange dans nos campagnes".

Twenty-four year old Montréaler Caroline works as a sales representative for a telephone company. She's married to Claude, the two who have a young son. On their fourth wedding anniversary, about which Claude seems to have forgot or doesn't care, Caroline seems unhappy with her life, although she approaches it with a certain efficiency. When she was growing up, she, like any girl, had several ideas which changed all the time of what she wanted to do with her life when she grew up. But her life hasn't seemed to come close to any of those dreams. Can Claude or anyone else reassure Caroline about her life, especially on this milestone?

A many-faced view of humanity, of global man in all his forms and interests. Produced originally in 70 mm (with stereophonic sound) for showing at Man and His World, the Montréal fair that succeeded Expo 67, this film employs the multi-image technique. People of all places, origins, cultures, secular and religious, are here united and seen side by side, creating an impressive, inspiring and challenging portrait. The film's title appears in seven languages. Film without words.

A short 1960 documentary about physical fitness trends in the big city. Here you see modern man brought to bay by his own poundage, resolved to erase by exercise what rich food, idleness and age have put on.

This documentary reveals something of the Chinese temperament through a visit to a seemingly ordinary railway station. Then we start to wonder. What does the “moving red flag” mean? Who are these Orientals, so patient in waiting, so concerned with order and the public good? Astonishment is followed by sympathy for the spontaneity and humor of these Chinese who, like us, share the same hopes and concerns.
