All That She Wants … [Elle veut le chaos] Denis Côté
Shot in gorgeous black and white, the minimal story takes place in a remote corner of Québec farmland. Coralie (Ève Duranceau) is a teenage girl, bristling with all the frustration and extreme mood swings that entails. Her father Jacob (Normand Lévesque) has just had her mother committed after an only-hinted-at last straw of crazy behavior. Laurent Lucas plays a boarder just returned from a stint in the slammer, while down the road, aging mob boss Alain (Réjean Lefrançois) is having management problems with loose-cannon lieutenant Spaz (Nicolas Canuel).
Winner at Locarno International Film Festival
