Wissenswertes
The hairdresser salon where Maryse works is called D.S. Early in the film, her son is drawing a picture of a car in his grandfather (the car salesman and Maryse's father) office. Just beside his drawing, we can see a picture of a Citroen DS.

Patzer
At the snowmobiles blessing, the sign says "BENIDICTION DE SKIDOOS". Apart from the fact that the first "N" is backward, the first word should read: BENEDICTION.

A movie about a small town in a rigorous weather : sensitive and beautiful

Sébastien Pilote is a very promising and talented filmmaker : the way he painted this region (North Canada) with such a sensitivity is very moving. The photography is so good that we can feel the snow and this very particular light of winter. Gilbert Sicotte plays an excellent role in the character of a car dealer who has dedicated his life to something he's not really aware of (to globalization ? to the consumer world ?), and Pilote is very subtle about that, as there is no judgment in his movie.

Definitely a filmmaker to follow, I'd love to see this movie again - but for that it need a distributor in France ! And then I'd love to see his next movie as well.
