After the Montreal Massacre

About This Movie

After the Montreal Massacre is one of those documentaries that doesn't shy away from the harsh realities of violence and gender-based hatred. It dives deep into the tragic events of December 6, 1989, where the focus is on Sylvie Gagnon, a survivor who provides chilling insights into that horrific day. The pacing is methodical, almost haunting, as it juxtaposes her memories with historical context, creating this palpable tension. The interviews are raw, and you can feel the weight of the trauma. It’s distinctive for its unflinching look at the aftermath and the broader societal implications. A not-so-easy watch, but one that offers a lot to think about regarding feminism and violence.
