Young non-binary trans photographer Laurence Philomène has emerged as one of the most original and inspiring voices of their generation and an LGBTQ+ community icon. Exploring the artist’s intimate world and creative process, LARRY (they/them) paints a luminous and engaging portrait of the complex, often misunderstood multiplicity of trans and non-binary identities and experiences.
Catherine Legault
Catherine Legault is an award-winning documentary filmmaker and editor with a film production degree from Montreal’s Concordia University. In 2016, she founded Concerto Films. Her debut feature, the documentary Sisters: Dream & Variations (2019), screened widely on the international festival circuit as well as in cinemas and on television. The film is a five-time winner at the IndieFEST Film Awards and won the Prix Iris at the Gala Québec Cinéma. LARRY (they/them) is her second feature. For Catherine, valuing diversity isn’t just some politically correct stance: rather, it shapes how she lives and relates to others. Her films stand as open and caring spaces, invitations to look further and see things differently.
