Shefferville, a company-town located more than 500km away in the middle regions of Northern Quebec. The mining company has just closed down its operations. Raul and Carmen are living there the last few hours of their married life under the anxious eye of their son Benoit. It is the end of myth associated with open spaces, the iron age and the “macho” economic development. The men and women who built Shefferville must start anew. Direct and fiction cinema methods of shooting in 16 and 35 mm were used. One knows where a documentary starts but where does it cease to be? How to reach the public and experiment and still keep in touch with reality? How to carry on with the documentary film tradition? Because of the risks that were taken to make The last Glacier, the film should be of great interest to INPUT.
