La Folie D'amour: The Xavier Dolan Collection
Episode Comprise: I Killed my Mother: Hubert Minel has a love/hate relationship with his mother. Desperate to escape the suffocating atmosphere of his mother's working-class, suburban home, Hubert drifts through the mysteries of an adolescence both marginal and typical: artistic discoveries, illicit experiences, the opening-up to friendship, sex, and ostracism. Heartbeats: Francis and Marie are close friends. One day, during a lunch, they meet Nicolas, a young man from the country newly arrived in town. Each of the two friends slides deeper into obsessive fantasies around their object of desire, and the deeper they slide, the more their once cast-iron friendship begins to crack under the pressure of competing for the new kid on the block. Laurence Anyways: The epic love story of a man (Melvil Poupaud) who decides to undergo a sex change and thedramatic effect it has on his relationship with his girlfriend (Suzanne Clément). Thought-provoking and stylishly shot the film dazzles, featuring music from Fever Ray, The Cure, Duran Duran, Visage, Depeche Mode and Scottish composer Craig Armstrong. Special Features: Filmed interview with Suzanne Clement and Melvil Poupaud Trailer
