Paul à Québec
Directed by François Bouvier | Fiction | 2015 | 98 min
Film Source: Les Films Séville
Sponsor: Alliance française of the Lake Champlain region

Paul is a cartoonist who lives with his girlfriend and their little daughter in Montreal in the summer of 1999.  His in-laws, the Beaulieus, are a large, joyful clan composed of siblings, grandchildren and a much loved patriarch named Roland who constantly reminds Paul that he has yet to marry his daughter. When Roland’s health begins failing, the family bands together and Paul projects his own devotion by doodling several portraits of his ailing father-in-law.

Based on the award winning comic strip by Michel Rabagliati, Paul à Québec is a touching ode to the beauty of life and the power of familial bonds.
