Our Loved Ones

The year is 1978 and the place is a small village on the Lower St Lawrence. Guy, the father of the Leblanc family, dies. His death shakes the family to its foundations. He has taken his own life. That truth is not told to everyone. His son David grows up for years without knowing it. His siblings have kept it from him meaning well. David later starts a family of his own. He marries Marie and they have two children. He raises Laurence and Frédéric with love. From the outside his life looks complete. Inside he carries a sadness that will not lift. As the years pass it grows heavier. His daughter Laurence begins to recognise herself in him. Breaking the chain falls to her. Maxim Gaudette and Karelle Tremblay appear in the hundred and two minute film, a Canadian production Anne Émond finished in 2015.
