Pour la suite du monde, or “when cinema recreates life, old gesture and future…”

Film Reference Library wrote:
For centuries the inhabitants of Île-aux-Coudres, a small island in the St. Lawrence River, trapped beluga whales by sinking a weir of saplings into the offshore mud at low tide. After 1920 the practice was abandoned.

In 1962, Michel Brault and Pierre Perrault, and a team of filmmakers from the NFB, arrived on the island to document life on Île-aux-Coudres and the resumption of the traditional whale trapping practice.

The resulting film was hugely popular in Quebec and soon became a classic of Canadian cinema. It represented a major development in direct cinema: moving away from simple observation to more immediate participation and an emphasis on the language of the people portrayed.

Pour la suite du monde also represents the direct cinema style of Quebec, which was evolving at that time. The most notable aspect of the approach was its emphasis on the importance of tradi­tion as an expression of the collective life and will of a people.

Pour la suite du monde was a major critical success upon its initial release and won several awards, including the 1964 Canadian Film Award for film of the year, and it has been extensively discussed and analyzed since then.

After a disastrous boating season, the filmmaker questions the economic and political future of an entire culture. This last film of the trilogy witnesses the end of the era of wooden schooners and of the men who knew how to build and pilot them.

Hauris Lalancette, from Abitibi, travel and draws parallels between two amazing parts of the country that are considered poor and neglected. It is also about the search for ancestors and nostalgia of the old crafts that were better, both on the human side and technical side.

Quote:
Long métrage documentaire sur Hauris Lalancette, un Québécois originaire de l’Abitibi, qui voyage et établit des parallèles surprenants entre deux coins de pays que l’on considère comme démunis et laissés pour compte. Il est aussi question de la recherche des ancêtres et de la nostalgie des vieux métiers qui valaient mieux, aussi bien sur le plan humain que sur le plan technique.

It is a documentary joining 3 periods of filming in the Mouchouanipi, which is a faraway land in the North of eastern Canada. Anthropologists, archeologists and native people all together in this «land without trees». They are hunting the caribous, using the old ways of the native people. This expedition leads to sharing experiences, points of view and expectations about the survival of the Natives way of life.

The result, contradictory yet profound, was especially striking thanks to the sublime images captured by Gosselin. A tail of age old hunting practices on images from the present, the movie reveals itself much more like an interrogation than a narration.

Who is veritably the “owner” of this territory named Mouchouânipi where a nomad tribe of Amerindians repeat daily ritual gestures of attachment and love to the land in an harmony filled secular poetry of respect and solidarity witch bound them to the land.

A moose hunt is the pretext for this film. Nine men and their Indian guide withdraw to the wilderness to spend one week together away from their daily routines. The film charts the social dynamics of this diverse group, how they relate to one another–alternately revealing and disguising their feelings. A rich mix of personalities lends relief to the human topography in this documentary about an annual event that brings out the best and worst in men. The filmmaker chose not to embellish what the camera recorded. -ONF
