Slowing down
Au fil de l'eau

Documentary, 29 mn. 2019
Producter and director : Jeannine Gagné

Sixty–something Rita Bilodeau lives alone in her small house, beside a rushing stream.  This is where she plans to get old – and be happy, joyful and free.  She has a social life too, and we follow Rita to the ladies Scrabble Club, consulting Roger, the local auto parts dealer, visiting Berthe’s lush garden and Jacinthe in her artist’s studio, in addition to participating in a bean bag toss tournament…a village life as typical as it is surprising.

An observation film that make think on aging and highlights this demographic fact that with the advancing age, many women find themselves widowed and alone; even when they are in the majority in their age group, they remain little visible socially.



Produced with the support of Conseil des arts et des lettres du Québec

PRIM - aide à la création  and the municipality of Saint-Calixte.
