Secret impressionists

How did the Impressionists view the world? What relationship did they have with technique, with color, with light and with the universe of shapes that made up reality before their eyes? How were their works received? How did they go from being rejected by critics and the public to becoming among the most loved in the world in a few years? Secret Impressionists is an immersive journey into the intimacy of the Impressionists and their paintings which aims to offer a "privileged" visit that stimulates the spectators' curiosity and gives them a perspective on the works complementary to the live experience, allowing spectators in the hall to immerse themselves in the work of painters and grasp unpublished details.

Les Rose

In October 1970, members of the Front de Libération du Québec (FLQ) kidnapped and murdered Minister Pierre Laporte, part of an unprecedented crisis in Quebec. Fifty years later, Félix Rose tries to understand what could have led his father and uncle to commit such crimes. Thanks to his uncle Jacques, who agrees for the first time to speak on the subject, and to the traces left by his father Paul, he revives the heritage of a Quebec working class family. The fruit of ten years of research, Les Rose allows us to revisit a time and people that we knew through clichés, and gives a glimpse of the experiences of a rebellious youth and the crimes that followed.

Le silence

From the 1950s to the 1980s, Catholic priests committed numerous sexual abuses on young boys in several French-speaking villages in New Brunswick. Brought to light when the victims were in their fifties, these scandals sparked shock and indignation in the media and the public. Why have affected communities chosen secrecy over justice and truth for so long? Taking advantage of their influence to impose a "pious silence" on their parishioners, several figures of authority have built a veritable structure of abuse that testifies as much to the oppressions specific to the Acadian populations as to the systemic denial of the Catholic Church. Challenged by the power of collective silence, seasoned filmmaker Renée Blanchar seeks to unravel the root causes by going out to meet the survivors.
