Cordélia poster
7.1

In a little village at the end of the 1890's, a young woman offends all the 'right-thinking' villagers by allowing men in her house in the absence of her husband. When he is found dead, all of the suspicion is directed towards the liberal woman. She is judged more for her morality then for the crime she is accused of. Her culpability is still a subject of debate today.

L'exil poster
8.0

Summoned by his bosses to broadcast only neutral information, Jean, a reporter, leaves town with his friend to go and collect testimonies from simple people, in the heart of the Laurentians, and reach out to them and outside society at genuine freedom, happiness. The departure is joyous, but the isolation in which they confine themselves does not bring either of them the results they expected. The adventure ends in failure. Would it be an illusion to believe that one can escape the community to which one belongs?

Trois fois passera poster
6.0

The story, in three stages, of a friendship between three guys. They have taken different paths, but find themselves equally faced with the failure of their lives. The parody is not exempt from what remains a fine analysis of behavior and environment. For these three Quebecers are, in a way, us, as we have been rendered by a society in search of itself.
