The Last Key
201723 min 48 secFilm: Documentary
Direction: Julien Capraro
Production: Dominic Desjardins
Script: Julien Capraro
Produced by the National Film Board of Canada with the collaboration of Radio-Canada as part of the Tremplin 2016 initiative.
A young immigrant arrives in Canada from France—and brings his Citroën 2CV with him. The iconic post-war car stands out on the streets of Vancouver, and before long he meets up with a group of like-minded car buffs. In Julien Capraro’s documentary short, Franck, Lionel, Harjeet and Johnny Mac, who are busy preparing for an upcoming antique-car show, explain how these vehicles not only evoke nostalgia for a past era but are also a powerful marker of identity and a link between two cultures. Produced as part of the Tremplin competition, in collaboration with ICI Radio-Canada Télé.
