John Walker’s new film, Quebec My Country Mons Pays, offers a perspective on Quebec from that of an Anglophone who, terrified by the bombs of the Front de libération du Québec and the rise of ethnic nationalism, eventually left his native land.
Review By Norman Wilner, NOW Toronto
Wilner praises Walker’s quiet and personal take on the history of Quebec’s distinct society, which is set for a commercial run after premiering at the Hot Docs film festival this past spring.
