Liliane Lamairtre-Auger, Veronique Le Flaguais.Summary: After starting a new job at a local film production company, free spirit Isabelle meets animator Virginie and the two become fast friends. Over the course of a freewheeling, sun-dappled Montreal summer, the pair deepens their bond through a shared exploration of art, ambition and desire. The first feature film directed by a woman in Quebec, Mireille Dansereau's fleet-footed and generous debut moves effortlessly between film making styles and. tones with the boundless energy of a young director in love with the Medium. A pathbreaking portrait of female friendship and interiority, Dream Life is one of the highlights of '70s Canadian cinema and a vibrant hidden gem primed for rediscovery.
