Filmer l'humanité

A look at Montréal through the faces of 725 of its citizens. One by one, each of these faces will be re-baptized with a name, be it well-known or obscure, which always reflects the character of Québec. The residents of Montpellier, Zaragoza, Liège, and Stockholm have already been filmed as part of this ongoing video project.

Témoignage d'une ville, Montréal, et de ses habitants. Dans des lieux divers, les passants sont invités à poser trois secondes devant la caméra vidéo, trois secondes comme au photomaton. Puis, la bande sonore de Suzanne Jacob réunit la succession de vidéo-portraits ainsi enregistrés. Des noms de personnages de la culture populaire ou de la littérature québécoise y rebaptisent ces centaines de visages qui n'avaient même pas eu le temps de prendre la pose... Après ceux de Montpellier, Zaragoza, Liège et Stockholm, les visages montréalais font désormais partie de l'humanité "filmée" de Lobstein.
