THE MUSKETEERS OF MISTER MICHEL
2019
In the school year 2010-2011, filmmaker Zuzana Zelinova followed a Welcome Class at a Montreal high school. These special classes are dedicated to the francization of young newcomers to Quebec. She chose the class of Mister Michel (Lapierre); a teacher devoted to his mission and, moreover, cinematic fun. He decided to make a movie with his students, “The Three Musketeers", by Alexandre Dumas. The class lived enthusiastically the famous phrase: "One for all, all for one!"
Eight years later, the filmmaker meets with the students. Who have they become? We turn our focus to "The Three Musketeers": Rubén of Mexico, Yacine of Algeria and Steven of Colombia. How did their integration into Quebec society proceed? How did "One for all, all for one!” become part of their stories over the years?
EDIT & ME
2017
A successful Slovak TV producer immigrates to Montreal, Canada.
Here, she finds herself in the service of Edit; a cranky, elderly Hungarian woman who speaks only Hungarian.
She films her experience; an absurd comedy that sheds a new light on the themes of immigration, loneliness and aging with a touch of humanity.
