La Plage
19783 min 25 secFilm: Experimental, Animation
Direction: Suzanne Gervais
Production: Francine Desbiens
A fantasy that leaves the viewer free to speculate, this film touches on the theme of solitude. A woman drowns, unnoticed by three men sitting with their backs to the sea. Two of them are throwing dice; the third is drinking a glass of water. An animation film without words based on a short story by Roch Carrier.
