Frequently voted the greatest Canadian film of all time, Mon oncle Antoine is a deeply cinematic record of ordinary life in a small Canadian mining town. The action occurs during one Christmas Eve in 1940 and develops into a tender and funny rite-of-passage essay whose unique mood is enhanced by the film’s intimate interiors and Québec’s open winter landscape.
