Anne Claire Poirier – La quarantaine (1982)
Quote:
La quarantaine (Beyond Forty) is a psychological drama by Anne Claire Poirier, veteran and pioneer of feminine and feminist cinema in Canada. As a director and producer, she broke the silence of women, reversed taboos and paved the way for women’s films in Quebec and Canada. “If I feel this way, it’s because others have to live the same thing as me.” This leitmotiv leads Anne Claire Poirier to make a feminine cinema that is both personal and plural.
Title of the English version: Beyond Forty
Beyond Forty is the best expressed expression of this fascination of Poirier for the bodies in all her work. The cinema has accustomed us to retained emotions, to discreet bodies, or then frankly erotic and aggressive; The audience can not bear the body that is crying or laughing if the camera accentuates its presence by close-ups. This, however, is what Poirier does in La quarantaine; In an even more conscious and provocative way than in all her other films. The bodies touch, embrace, stick together, without the usual norms of love scenes, with the provocation often provoked by the innocence of children.
