75 and still plotting world tours—this diva refuses to dim.
An hour in the company of Patsy Gallant is anything but ordinary. In true privacy, she opens up like never before to André Robitaille. From Acadia, where she was born via the cabarets of Montreal and Paris, she lives her life at a hundred miles an hour. At 75, she still dreams of touring, of music, and above all of telling her audience about herself in song. Over the course of the interview, they reflect together on the price of fame, on money, on her life which was marked by an extraordinary youth.

Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Gallant's 1976 hit 'From New York to L.A.' made her the first francophone Canadian to crack the UK top 10—yet she's rarely mentioned in national music canon discussions.
Rivet's choice to film in Robitaille's home rather than a studio deliberately collapses the distance between interviewer and subject—a rarity in Quebec celebrity docs.
