Vic + Flo saw a bear
Depuis 10 ans, le Prix collégial du cinéma québécois, parrainé par Québec Cinéma, célèbre notre cinéma en le plaçant au centre des regards de la communauté collégiale. Ce cycle soulignera le 10e anniversaire de cette grande fête qui permet aux étudiant.e.s de se sensibiliser au cinéma d’ici et présentera les films lauréats du PCCQ depuis 2012.
The mission of the Centre d'art et essai de la Cinémathèque québécoise (CAECQ) is to primary program Quebec-made documentaries and independent fiction, as well as international documentaries, animated and foreign films, while encouraging opportunities for meetings between the public and the artists. Its programming is presented in conjunction with the Cinémathèque québécoise’s under the label New releases.
Victoria, an ex-convict in her sixties, wants to start new life in a remote sugar shack. Under the supervision of Guillaume, a young, sympathetic parole officer, she tries to get her life back on track along with Florence, her former cellmate with whom she shared years of intimacy in prison. Stalked by ghosts of the past, their new life together is unexpectedly jeopardized.
