Cinemania – Marche au pays réel

World premiere
Screening in presence of special guests

In an attempt to travel 2,750 km from southern Quebec to its northernmost point by bike and ski in the heart of winter, adventurers Samuel Lalande-Markon and Simon-Pierre Goneau aim to re-engage with the territory and reflect on the identity and collective relationship that Quebecers have with it. Their journey begins at kilometer marker 720, an obelisk-shaped monument located at the U.S. border, and ends at Cap Anaulirvik, north of Ivujuvik, the northernmost point of the Ungava Peninsula. Over the course of a 91-day expedition, they encounter the vastness, beauty, and wildness of the country.
