I Lost Sight of the Landscape

Event Description

Event type: All Ages

Filmmaker Sophie Bédard Marcotte couldn’t have known the kind of journey she was beginning when she developed a curiosity about Gabriel Charlebois Plante, a theatre artist who was also her neighbour. But in documenting the sometimes highly eccentric exercises and explorations that comprise Plante’s creative process as he develops a new play based on the myth of Sisyphus, Marcotte gradually finds a way through her own personal and artistic impasse. Sweet, funny, and insightful, the resulting film is an offbeat delight, one that celebrates the connections we make with others and demonstrates art’s ability to create purpose and meaning in our lives.
