Bagages

Bagages lends a voice and a stage to a group of teenagers who have recently settled in Montreal and are attending Paul-Gérin-Lajoie-d'Outremont high school. The story of their migration and integration is told through drama workshops, theatrical production and interviews, during which they reveal themselves to the public. The "other place" of "before" will eventually turn into the "here" and "now". Though they are young, they tell their stories with a disconcerting wisdom, an emotion that will touch even the hardest of hearts and a disarming authenticity.
