What happens

The Decline (French: Jusqu'au déclin, lit. "Until the Decline") is a 2020 Canadian action thriller film directed by Patrice Laliberté in his feature debut. It is the first film made in Quebec to be produced as a Netflix original film. The film stars Guillaume Laurin as Antoine, a man from Montreal who becomes worried about a natural disaster and joins a survivalist training program in rural Nord-du-Québec led by an experienced middle-aged survivalist, Alain (Réal Bossé). While the participants at first bond with the charismatic Alain, they become divided after a trainee dies in an accident. The film's cast includes Marc-André Grondin, Isabelle Giroux, Marilyn Castonguay, Marc Beaupré, Marie-Evelyne Lessard and Guillaume Cyr. The film had its theatrical premiere at the Rendez-vous Québec Cinéma in February 2020, with its premiere on Netflix slated for later in the year. It was later made available as an original on Netflix, with dubbed audio tracks in 32 languages. For the English version (directed by John DeMita), all of the original cast dubbed their own dialogue to ensure that the accent of Francophone Québécois speaking English would be accurately represented.
