A 105-year-old Acadian agrees to be filmed one Sunday as she goes about her daily routine and ruminates on life. Filmed by her great-grandson, Aldéa Pellerin-Cormier comments wisely on politics, sex and religion. From getting ready in the morning to drinking her nightcap before bed, every moment is punctuated with a witticism or existential thought. Respectful of the old woman's privacy, Daniel Léger's first documentary looks at wisdom, serenity and enjoyment of life. In French with English subtitles. This documentary was made as part of the Tremplin program, with the collaboration of Radio-Canada.

Aujourd’hui, on valorise le culte de la jeunesse éternelle et certaines publicités de crèmes de beauté s’adressent même à de jeunes adolescentes. Et si on basculait dans la réalité… Si on vantait la beauté des rides et autres signes de vieillissement en leur associant des attributs positifs? C’est le défi qu’auront à relever les élèves en créant une publicité dans le medium de leur choix : affiche, vidéo ou audio.
