Métis Femme Bodies by Chanelle Lajoie is awarded Best Documentary Short Film at FESTIVAL FILMINISTES!

Mar 16, 2023

Big congratulations to Chanelle Lajoie’s Métis Femme Bodies for receiving Best Documentary Short Film at FESTIVAL FILMINISTES in Montréal!

From the jury:

Métis Femmes Bodies suggests a nuanced, complex, profound discourse that opens up to the multiple dimensions of female and Métis identities. By showing bodies in postures normally confined to the private sphere, it gives access to a confronting vulnerability that allows us to take the full measure of what is said. A necessary film.

The prize awarded is a $5,000 grant from Post-Moderne.
