From the director of Bestiaire comes this bizarre, funny, and creepy melodrama about Victoria, an ex-convict in her sixties, and her lover (and former cellmate) Florence, who attempt to start new life in a remote Quebecois sugar shack. Even though Vic and Flo are under the supervision of Guillaume, a young, sympathetic parole officer, their idyll is interrupted by ghosts from their past. With fine performances, bizarre characters, striking visuals, and an ominous atmosphere, maverick Denis Coté's Vic + Flo Saw a Bear is a tender love story with a shocking climax that leaves you shaken...and with the feeling that you have certainly seen something visionary and unique.
