Movies set in Quebec City, Canada?

[gretah]

Good afternoon,

Do you have any movies to recommend which are set in Quebec City, Canada?

I love watching fiction movies set in a place to which I will soon travel. Very fun.

I'm planning a family reunion to take place in Quebec City and would love to have a list of movies for people to watch before the trip.

If you know of a fiction movie or two, I'd love to learn the names!

Thanks!

Quebec has produced a few very famous directors but not a lot of english language films. Of those, most tend to be filmed in Montreal and not Ville de Quebec.

Quebecois cinema also tends to be highly artsy and "experimental" as well.. not family fare, if that is what you are after.

Here are a few set in the province that I like...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seducing_Doctor_Lewis
- a tiny bit like a French version of Waking Ned Devine. Watch the Quebecois version, not the english remake.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bon_Cop,_Bad_Cop
- buddy cop movie but making fun of the mutual dislike of english and french Canada.

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2860720/
- a lonely Quebecois father has to sell the family farm to support his grown daughter.
