- -Telling the big story through a little one: that was the task Charles Gervais set for himself in "La part d'ombre", his documentary. Nelly-Thidia was born in Montreal (Canada). Her parents, Cambodian refugees, escaped genocide, and their daughter grew up wondering about the horrific legacy. As the first international trial opened in Cambodia to shed light on the atrocities committed between 1975 and 1979 by the Khmer Rouge under leader Pol Pot, when an estimated 25% of the country's population perished, Nelly-Thidia decided to visit her parents' homeland in order to face down her own demons and try to understand the malaise that still afflicts her family life. Through her journey, we are exposed to the horror of a people haunted by a murderous past, whose wounds are still raw. An unsettling, moving and sensitive film.
- In 1999, the celebrated Montreal photographer Evergon took a remarkable series of nude portraits of his own mother, then 80 years old: black and white images that embodied not the infirmities of old age, but a timeless strength, dignity, even majesty.

- In the weeks that followed the sinking of the Titanic in April 1912, the CGS Montmagny, a Canadian resupply ship, is chartered to recover the victims' corpses. The expedition allows a number of corpses to be pulled from the ocean, including one still grasping a life preserver almost a month after the disappearance of the liner. Two years later, the Montmagny shares the same tragic fate as the Titanic: it goes down in its turn, hit by the collier Lingan, leading to the death of an officer and two families of passengers. Since then, the Montmagny has disappeared from memory. This fascinating documentary uncovers the unknown story of this modest vessel with the aid of archival documents, including some never before seen on screen, interviews with historians and gripping reconstructions. Besides the discovery of the wreck, the production team is even able to find a priceless relic from the Titanic : the life preserver salvaged by the Montmagny's crew.

- -A remarkable actor and discreet man, Jacques Godin has played more than 200 roles in the space of fifty years, in theatre, television and film. Easy characters: very few for him. He has a soft spot for intense roles, as shown by his unforgettable performances in the TV theatre "Des souris et des hommes" in 1971, in the film "Being at Home with Claude" in 1992, and in the play "La charge de l'orignal épormyable" in 1993. Still as active today, Jacques Godin trains regularly, has been a vegan for more than 25 years, plays in the soap opera "Toute la vérité" and militates against violence towards animals. He is not only an actor of substance, but also a man of conviction.
- As world's largest natural gas exporter, was Russian involvement in the Ukraine war patriotic... or economic? In order to find out, this geopolitically-themed documentary attempts to better understand an issue that concerns both the future of Europe and NATO, in the face of an arrogant Putin-ruled Kremlin. Putin appears to be in fact assuming the role of CEO of a Kremlin Inc. - a state-capitalist network of state companies, political directorships, and offshore companies. Natural gas thus casts quite a different light on the recent turn of event... Russia isn't preparing for war, but is resorting to all of its unconventional weaponry to preserve its monopoly over a vital market for its economy: Europe.
