The Snowshoers (1958)
Directed by Michel
Brault and Gilles Groulx this is a short documentary from the
Canadian film board. We see a snowshoe running competition and the
celebrations around it from Sherbrooke.
As a historical record
this film may be of some interest as it captures a unique place and
point in time. There is not really a narrative to the piece and the
content is fairly gentle, it never challenges the viewer. Pretty well
made but not overly remarkable I don't think I would find myself
recommending this film to anyone.
3/5
