Description

Ce magnifique film de Claude Jutra reconstitue l'atmosphère qui régnait dans une petite ville minière du Québec, en 1940, à la veille de Noël, seul jour de l'année où les usines fermaient leurs portes. Insouciante pour quelques heures, la population, rassemblée au magasin général, oublie sa pauvreté et se livre à la joie des Fêtes. Aux aguets, un garçon de 15 ans, attentif aux conversations et aux gestes de ses aînés, découvre à travers les êtres qui l'entourent l'univers des adultes, le monde des sensations et sa rudesse, celui de la souffrance et des petites folies auxquelles on se raccroche et qui prennent, pour un instant, l'air du bonheur.

Version originale française avec option de sous-titres anglais. Le DVD inclu également le court métrage de Claude Jutra et Norman McLaren "Il était une fois une chaise" en anglais avec sous-titres français.

Set in a small mining town in the eastern townships in the 1940s when the general store was the crossroads of village life. On Christmas Eve for a few hours the villagers forget their poverty and converge on the store for gossip and revelry. In the midst of it all is Uncle Antoine, the town's undertaker, with his ribald humour whetted by occasional recourse to the gin bottle, and always somewhere in the background is his nephew, 15-year-old Benoît, observing it all the hypocrisy, joy, despair, carnality, class tension, and strange melancholy of the adults around him.

Original French version with an option for English subtitles, the DVD also includes Claude Jutra and Norman McLaren's short film "A Chairy Tale" in English with French subtitles.
