Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Céline Bonnier and Claude Legault had previously starred together in Quebec television, giving their chemistry an uncomfortable lived-in quality.
The film captures a specific strain of Quebecois working-class masculinity rarely exported — think Ken Loach but with more poutine-adjacent melancholy.
