Les contagions barbares
05:00 minutes, colour, French / English Why can't boys wear skirts and girls grow a mustache? Why have sex and
religion come to replace the plague as our number one collective fear?
Set in a folkloristic alpine background, Les contagions barbares (Barbarian Contagions)
is a whirlwind of questions that a child might ask. Through a melting
pot of images and video extracts, folk music, medieval archives and
handmade drawings, the childlike voiceover narrator embarks us on a
journey where gender, sexuality and systemic violence collide with
history, tradition, family taboos and even a Bobsleigh race.

Les crevasses foisonnent de miniatures hérétiques / Crevasses abound of heretic miniatures
08:18 minutes, colour, English and French, English subtitles In this fictionalized autobiography, a childlike voiceover portrays with an ingenuous but also acerbe tone the world that surrounds her. In between Alpine traditional songs, images from archives and pictures of zany DIY mini sculptures and drawings, the viewer is caught in a dense collage that blends intimate, local and national histories. Taboos about family, relationships, sexuality, race, French colonial war in Algeria, classism and white privilege are addressed by the naive questions of the narrator. These questions reflect on a social landscape that has been damaged by ignorance and violence. Les crevasses foisonnent de miniatures hérétiques / Crevasses abound of heretic miniatures is an unlikely slideshow that underlines stereotypes embedded in the everyday language of history in order to debunk them.

Le Petit Manuel de Désinstruction Bric-à-braquesque [...] / Hodgepodge Dis-instruction Manual
06:37 minutes, colour, French, English subtitles Full title: Petit manuel de désinstruction bric-à-braquesque ou comment l'errance sur un chantier de dentelles et de mortier permet (parfois) d'exhumer quelques cadavres d'histoires /Hodgepodge Dis-instruction Manual or How Wandering in a Construction Site Full of Lace and Mortar (Sometimes) Allows to Exhume a Few Dead Histories.
Originally created as a performance slideshow, Petit manuel de désinstruction bric-à-braquesque [...] is a video diverting the tone and language used for academic and scientific presentations. This pseudo-conference aims at analyzing the Patriarchatus Archaius Syndrome (PAS), a under diagnosed but extremely frequent illness that strikes more people than you could ever imagine. Using schema, historical archives, scientific imagery and even a bit of slam, this presentation will hopefully help the audience to better grasp the complex nature of this matter.

Comment on peut supposer que Dieu était bien intentionné malgré les avalanches, les moustaches et le petits tracas quotidiens
06:10 minutes, colour, French Je ne suis pas un prénom, je ne suis pas un carré. Je suis un polygone compliqué, un pays bancal sur deux pied - une honte hexagonale décomplexée, des barils de promesses canadiennes qui s'achètent, un Québec aux frontières de papier. Assemblage hybride d'éclats de slam post-Charlie et de microrécit autofictif, je suis une vidéo expérimentale rythmée par des qualificatifs variés, des superpositions d'images imprimées, d'animation, de vidéo et de gifs animés paillettés. Un collage kitscho-performatif à l'ère de crise identitaire. Distribution: GIV

8 ways and more to get somewhere

SEWenir

SEWenir est un tout petit film expérimental sur les traces laissées par les départs sans retour, qui tient en deux mots cousus sur le bout des doigts. SEWenir is a very short experimental video about traces left by departures with no return, made out of two single words sewn by hand on the fingers tips. Distribution: GIV
