Canada, 2013
For all the diversity and vibrancy one can easily find in Canadian culture, from ‘coast to coast to coast’ as the uniquely Canadian saying goes, the stories of the First Nations are the least shared in film, theater, television and music. Whether the brunt of the responsibility for this equally diverse culture’s lack of presence in traditional media lie with collective disinterest, some unwritten and unspoken stigma or even both, the fact remains that their history and stories remain mostly a mystery to the populace at large. In fairness, there have been exceptions to the unfortunate rule, such as the memorable film Atanarjuat from 2002 and the hit television series North of 60 which lasted several seasons. For the most part, it simply does not seem like...

In one week, the TV series Musée Eden, which is a nine-episode crime drama, will premiere on March 16 at 9 Pm (10 Pm in the Maritimes) on Radio-Canada.
While the show is a crime thriller, it also casts a look at the condition of women during the 1910s. It was written by Gilles Desjardins, directed by Alain DesRochers and produced by Sophie Deschênes.
The story takes place in 1910 in a poor neighbourhood of Montreal where criminality reigns. Camille (Mariloup Wolfe) and Florence (Laurence Leboeuf) Courval leave the province of Manitoba and arrive in Montreal. They inherit from their murdered uncle a museum of wax statues specialized in criminal history. Moreover, the Courval sisters will try to solve the murders that take place in their neighbourhood with the help of Dr Boyer (Paul Doucet), a forensic expert, and Étienne Monestier (Éric Bruneau).
Moreover, as they explore the underbellies of Montreal, Camille and Florence will come across corrupted policemen,...

Unlike what we believe, the Rendez-vous du cinéma québécois isn't just a film festival. It's also an opportunity to see the pilot of upcoming TV series before everybody. In fact, on Friday, February 26, the pilot of Musée Eden will be presented in the auditorium of the Grande bibliothèque at 7 Pm.
This upcoming TV series from Radio-Canada opens with the brutal murder of a man, Félix Courval, in the Montreal of the 1910s. He has two nieces - played by Laurence Leboeuf (Durham County) and Mariloup Wolfe (Ramdam) - who lives in St-Boniface, Manitoba. After Courval's death, the two women come to Montreal, the city where he lived, in order to know the content of his will. The oldest of the two women will inherit from a few buildings and above all, a museum where crime scenes are reproduced (even with the real blood of the victims).
Moreover, as they have to handle the museum,...
