About this event
FilmIn the Lac-Saint-Jean region, more than a century and a half ago, major forest fires helped create the fertile ground that allowed the legendary presence of the blueberry to flourish. Today, the region faces multiple challenges, including climate change, the modernization of agricultural models, and economic pressures. Through a series of interwoven stories and aspirations that meet and converse with one another, this choral film reveals the interconnectedness of a diverse community brought together by this emblematic regional fruit. Thanks to a rich sound design in which music emerges as a point of connection, this sensitive and skillfully crafted film carries a note of optimism, without denying the difficulties of the present or those still to come. Translated into English from the site: RIDM – Les blues du bleuet
