What it’s about. William is constantly shooting video journals of his life to have as souvenirs for himself. Feeling the end of his relationship with Médéric, his young lover, William spends two days camping with him, taking advantage of the situation by filming the trip and their time spent with another young gay couple. The camera never stops shooting, even when Médéric decides to get it on with another guy in a tent. As Canada's first Dogme95 film, the story is shot on location, with natural lighting and live sound, the camera is hand-held and all superficial elements are forbidden. Yet somehow, in spite of these harsh restrictions during the filmmaking process, the result is warm and beautiful.
Who’s in it. Lonely Child stars Dhanaé Audet-Beaulieu as Médéric, Sylvie-Katherine Bouchard as Louise, Madeleine Péloquin as Vicky and Francis Ducharme as Nicolas, among others.
