Cosmos

Canada's submission to the 70th Academy Awards: Cosmos takes us on a journey through six stories steeped in the city fever of the Montreal streets. In the course of his long working day, he comes into contact with a number of young people whose lives he shares. In the course of his errands, Cosmos will help Yannie who is anxious to join her friend Joël, he will drive Fanny to a hotel where she will meet up with a former lover, he will soothe Morille who is preparing for a television interview. "Shot in high-contrast black and white and perfectly set on the humid streets of Montreal, Cosmos remains an almost unique essay in Quebec auteur cinema." (filmsquebec.com)
