2012/ THROUGH THE HEART

Rodrigue Jean & Arnaud Valade / Canada / 2022 / 1 hour 28 mins / French with English Subs

2012/ THROUGH THE HEART marks the 10th anniversary of the great political and social movement that accompanied the 2012 student strike in Québec. Three events are at the centre of the documentary: the protest at the Salon du Plan Nord in Montreal, the riot at the Liberal Party Convention in Victoriaville and the demonstrations in June and July 2012 in Montreal in defiance of emergency laws. ‘2012/In the Heart’ is constructed from a multiplicity of viewpoints in an interweaving of images from amateur and professional sources. The film is narrated by Safia Nolin.

The documentary 2012/ THROUGH THE HEART is part of the 51st edition of the Festival du nouveau cinéma – FNC !
