A Colony
Directed by Geneviève Dulude-De Celles
Produced by Colonelle Films
A tender coming-of-age story about two sisters navigating adolescence, family strain, and first love in rural Quebec, grounded in intimate character observation and the search for belonging.
Camille wanders through the countryside talking with frogs and chickens: she sails through life as a carefree soul. But for her older sister, the introverted Mylia, things are more complicated. Mylia is lost between the uncertainty in her family life, the superficial atmosphere at her new school and her first experiences at house parties. It is Camille who eventually introduces Mylia to Jimmy. The boy from the nearby Abenaki reserve is different and he encourages her to break free.
