Résonance Acadie follows the journey of ten young artists from the Acadian diaspora, a historic region in North America, who are invited to create a work of art in just eight days during the World Acadian Congress in Nova Scotia. They dive into the worlds of music, theater, cinema, dance, and visual arts, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression, and choose to redefine Acadian heritage through their more contemporary vision. The film captures the creative process of these young talents, driven by a genuine passion for their culture, as they explore their Acadian identity.

His filmography, both documentaries and fiction, has contributed to the promotion of Acadian culture, and he has been honored with several prestigious awards for his achievements.
