What People Are Saying

“Director John Walker dares to verbalize and visualize a contentious yet broadly misunderstood subject – the isolation felt by a staggering number of Anglophones in post-referendum Québec. The jury feels this should be mandatory viewing for all Canadians.”

Jury citation, Vancouver International Film Festival – Honourable Mention – Best Documentary


The finely wrought texture of this film weaves together several threads: personal memory and reflection, conversation with thinkers and actors of the period, questioning that transcends the generations…” 

Michael Hoare, Avenir Vivable (Read entire review here)

 
“It is the best documentary I have seen on the subject and one of the best I have seen on any subject.”

Garth Stevenson, author: Community Besieged – The Anglophone Minority and the Politics of Québec


“Especially touching is Walker’s exploration of his own family’s generations-old history in Quebec and its relationship to his contemporary dilemma of loving a place that feels inextricably rooted in his soul, yet seems so distant all the same.”

Greg Klymkiw, The Film Corner (Read entire review here)
