Spartan story

This film was at least partly inspired by an old classic of shorts stories of death. We have an old doctor preparing his own by recruiting a younger one. We have the patients having to deal with their issues. The whole is well wrapped in a story about moving to the small isolated town in north-west Québec where winters are long and summers are short. There is the potential love interest. There is the philosophical reason of existing. All the takes are taken to feel like we would if we'd be there. A bit lonely, a bit isolated, at our own mercy. The story progresses without rushing and without getting bored as we learn something all along. It's cold, it's spartan, it's a life out of the city.
