Une histoire du cinéma : André Melançon (6 min)
A short, sensitive portrait retracing the career of André Melançon, an iconic filmmaker whose natural talent with young people was evident from the start, thanks in particular to his experience as a psychoeducator.
Les chiens-loups – Dominic Leclerc (90 min)
How can one be both firm and empathetic at school? Where are the limits of freedom? At what age do social differences become noticeable?
This tender and moving documentary delves into the heart of a participatory artistic experience conducted in 2017 in Rouyn-Noranda. Under the watchful eye of Dominic Leclerc, actor Alexandre Castonguay works with elementary school students around Jean de La Fontaine’s The Wolf and the Dog, revealing their surprising reflections… while revealing himself.
