Fortunate Shipwreck

Overview

'L'Heureux Naufrage' (Fortunate Shipwreck) is a deep and human documentary film about the meaning of life and our values. Through the eyes of more than thirty public figures, from Quebec and France, it addresses essential questions, never explored in this way here. Denys Arcand, Éric-Emmanuel Schmitt, Denise Bombardier, Pierre Maisonneuve, and many others, give their very personal reflections, on the emptiness that inhabits them, the quest for meaning, spirituality, God. An inspiring and touching film, constructed through encounters, in which visions and possible responses to the spiritual void of our postmodern society intersect.
