Pour La Suite Du Monde

I have visited Ile-aux-Coudres several times. The St. Lawrence is wide there and it smells like the sea. (This is a repost from several years ago)
 


"This feature-length documentary is the unrehearsed story of what happened when old-timers from Ile-aux-Coudres, a small island in the St. Lawrence River, were persuaded to revive a local whale-catching practice. Through the magic of words and the mystery of the catch, the film uncovers a spirituality rooted in the moon and the rhythm of the tides. More than a documentary; it is a fresco of the myths and legends among the traditional fishing communities of Quebec."
