Much more than a documentary on the renovation of Félix Leclerc’s house in Vaudreuil (now an historic monument) and its conversion into a site for artists-in-residence, this film depicts the singer-poet’s life here through the memories of his eldest son, Martin Leclerc. Combining interviews with friends and artists, drawings by his daughter Mélanie and original music by Jérôme Langlois, the film provides a link between past and future.
