Paul à Québec
Paul à Québec is a Canadian drama film from Quebec, directed by François Bouvier and released in 2015.
Based on Michel Rabagliati's graphic novel of the same title, the film stars François Létourneau and Julie Le Breton as Paul and Lucie, a happily-married couple struggling to cope with Lucie's father Roland's diagnosis with terminal pancreatic cancer. The cast also includes Louise Portal, Bobby Beshro, Brigitte Lafleur, Myriam LeBlanc, Julien Poulin, Mathieu Quesnel, Patrice Robitaille, Geneviève Schmidt, Nathaly Thibault and Karine Vanasse.
Rabagliati originally approached Bouvier about adapting either Paul à Québec or Paul a un travail d'été for film, because he was a fan of Bouvier's earlier film Winter Stories . Around the same time as that personal contact, Karine Vanasse and Nathalie Brigitte Bustos, two of the film's producers, approached La Pastèque, Rabagliati's publisher, to inquire about optioning film rights to Paul à Quebec.
Sicotte won the Québec Cinéma award for Best Actor at the 18th Quebec Cinema Awards.
