Emilie

Emilie is a transmedia romantic comedy, a fragmented story that unravels on multiple platforms. We follow Emilie on the day where she is about to leave for a journey abroad with her current boyfriend. A good friend, an ex-boyfriend and an old flame all seem to conspire to stop her from leaving Montreal. A combination of funny mix-ups and quirky encounters bring her all over town from the Courthouse to a local Serbian hairdressing salon as she tries to deal with all the men in her life. Technology is used to strengthen an already enticing narrative, but at the heart of it, Emilie is the simplest and most beautiful story there is: a tale of love. The concept is simple: all of the broadcasting and communication tools accessible today are used to tell a story differently, so that viewers can feel and experiment fiction in a new and innovative way. The project aims to reduce the distance between reality and fiction, submerging the audience in Emilie’s world.
