Boris

Iphigénie Marcoux-Fortier et Chloë Saint-Denis / 2022 / 41 min. / Canada / FRENCH, Russe, espagnol / Canada

Synopsis

Boris was a Ukrainian-Canadian mountaineer whose love for mountains was deeply spiritual. Now, his family must face their first expedition without him as they take his ashes to Patagonia – a place he considered Heaven on Earth. A contrast of laughter and tears, BORIS is a story about finding meaning after loss, and the power of nature to heal and unite us.
