Dr. Rainville is an old country
doctor who feels very attached to his patients. Nearing
retirement, he must find his replacement. Dr. Jeanne
Dion, an emergency-ward doctor from Montréal, wants a
life change. She responds to Rainville’s classified ad
and agrees to come and work in Normétal for a few weeks
while he’s away on an important trip. Life here is hard,
and the rapport with patients far more intimate than
what Jeanne experienced in the emergency ward of a major
urban hospital. A deliberately-paced and thoughtful new
film from the director of the 2008 Stony Brook Film
Festival drama, Summit Circle.
Produced by Bernadette Payeur. Director of Photography:
Sara Mishara. In competition from E1 Entertainment
International.
