Portrait de la Place Ville Marie
Alexandre Larose, Canada (QC), S8mm, 3.5 min, 2011
“Both hub and landmark, Montréal’s Place Ville Marie is significant as much for its underground city as its modernist towers. In this film Larose frees the edifice from its foundations, allowing the forms to dance an abstract pas des deux against a dazzling blue sky.” — Images Festival Alexandre Larose studied cinema at Corcordia University in Montréal. He has made five short films since 2004, with screenings at festivals including the IFF Rotterdam, the Belgrade Documentary and Short FF, Images Festival (Toronto) and the 16th edition of Media City in 2010. He lives in Montréal.
