Nanook of the North
This pioneering documentary film depicts the lives of the indigenous Inuit people of Canada's northern Quebec region. Although the production contains some fictional elements, it vividly shows how its resourceful subjects survive in such a harsh climate, revealing how they construct their igloo homes and find food by hunting and fishing.

Le spasme de vivre
Quebec is a modern society where the suicide rate among 15-25 year olds is among the highest in the world. It is the second leading cause of death after car accidents. The result of three years of research in all environments, Le Spasme de vivre tells the life stories of different people, and all of these stories form a portrait of society.
Boisbouscache
The TNO (Unorganized Territory) Lac-Boisbouscache is a 150 square kilometer public forest located in the Lower St. Lawrence region of Quebec, Canada. Through the eyes of the forest's residents and users, the film paints a portrait of a territory that has long been coveted by private groups with diverse interests. Boisbouscache is a story of dispossession based on current commercial uses combined with the absence of any political will.
Indian Time
The title Indian Time seeks to reverse the stereotypical expression associated with ‘’being late’’ in order to present the indigenous viewpoint of their relationship with time, territories, people and objets proper to the First Nations, thus launching the spectator into this ‘’Indian Time’’ with fresh eyes and an open heart. Captured over a period of five years within 18 communities, INDIAN TIME is a personal and current portrayal of the 11 Aboriginal nations of Québec, where some forty people take turns speaking, allowing for exceptional encounters and immersing the viewer - eyes and heart - in this "Indian Time".

Ski de fond
A short documentary on the charms of cross-country skiing. Beyond the formal beauty of the images, there floats a certain nostalgia for unknown landscapes.

Gros chat

Madwoman of God
This feature-length film tells the story of the passion between Marie de l’Incarnation, a mid-seventeenth-century nun and God, her "divine spouse." Fusing documentary and acting by Marie Tifo, whom we follow as she rehearses for this demanding role, the film paints an astonishing portrait of this mystic who abandoned her son and left France to build a convent in Canada, where she became the first female writer in New France.
