Script: André Roy
Produced by the National Film Board of Canada with the collaboration of Radio-Canada.
A Part of Me addresses a little-known topic: hair loss in women. The documentary focuses on Karène, the director’s wife, who suffers from alopecia and is ready to do anything to regain her self-confidence. Centering on the testimonies of Madeleine, 17, Jenny, 30, and Marie-Claire, 60, the film questions the concept of beauty by plunging into the daily lives of women from different generations. Produced as part of the Tremplin competition, in collaboration with Ici Radio-Canada Télé.
