(Canada 2013, 95 min.)
Directed by Denis Côté
Victoria, an ex-convict in her sixties, wants to start new life in a remote sugar shack. Under the supervision of Guillaume, a young, sympathetic parole officer, she tries to get her life back on track along with Florence, her former cellmate with whom she shared years of intimacy in prison. Stalked by ghosts of the past, their new life together is unexpectedly jeopardized.
"Côté returns with a sublime portrayal of the nuances of smalltown life but he steeps this understated tale in slow-burn suspense…Côté once again demonstrates his mastery of teasing out the fascinating in the banal—to unnerving effect" Georgia Straight
