Details

Lorsqu’on fabrique un canot, il arrive un moment où l’on entrevoit sa forme définitive. La coque se profile. L’élégante courbure de la proue s’affirme. Et il en va parfois de même dans la vie, quand notre vrai parcours nous apparaît enfin.


Le long métrage documentaire Au fil de l’eau accompagne deux artisans de canots traditionnels que la pratique de leur art réoriente vers l’équilibre et la guérison.
