Go in from here and this film is already out on the counter, with more like it waiting on the shelf next to it.

The cast also includes Audrey Rancourt-Lessard, Mélody Minville, Jacques Laroche, Eliot Laprise, Serge Bonin, Éric Leblanc, Louis Tremblay, Martin Laroche, Lucien Ratio, Charles-Étienne Beauline, Jean-Michel Girouard, Sylvain Brosseau, Pierre-Luc Fontaine, Nicolas Paquin, Claude Vallières, Patrick Lauzon, Annie Gignac, Vincent Champoux, Michael Kelly, Marc Poirier, François Aubin, André Beaupré, Étienne Bouchard, Lise Castonguay and Hugo Girard in supporting roles. The film was shot in fall 2015, in rural areas near Quebec City. The film premiered at the 2016 Fantasia Film Festival, where it was the winner of the Barry Convex Award for Best Canadian Film. It was later screened at the Rhode Island International Film Festival, where it won the First Jury Prize for feature films. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
