Synopsis by Nathan Southern
As directed by Denys Desjardins, this documentary provides a sweeping portrait of the sociological effects wrought on the region of Abitibi, Quebec during the 1930s, when massive changes to the populace prompted a mass exodus from that community. Desjardins evokes the various shifts that occurred over time via archival film of the region shot during the said period.
