Pour la suite du monde

The film also captures the beautiful, if unforgiving, frozen landscape of the Great White North, far removed from conventional civilization.

The documentary claims, unconvincingly, that this event added to the sparks of the political revolution in Quebec that led to the rise of the separatist movement.
