Biography

Graduate in film production at Concordia University, where he won the Mel Hoppenheim Award for his musical "The Flower of Age", Pascal Plante continues his career as a director with Némésis Films, box of production of which he is the co-founder. Pascal sees himself first and foremost as an avid moviegoer. This sickly (and communicative) cinephile, transparent in his work, is channeled every week in the podcast Point de Vues, entirely dedicated to cinema. Pascal Plante produced the daring web series "Les Jaunes", originally broadcast online on tou.tv and then reworked in feature film for his festival tour.
