Surfacing

This short follows grand dame of the theatre Diana Leblanc as she prepares for a role in The Dybbuk (Soulpepper Theatre Company) and gets ready to direct an opera (Madame Butterfly). The film weaves together archival footage, photographs, and animation depicting Leblanc as a young ballerina, offering an intimate reflection on her life's passions, challenges, and lessons.

Throughout his imposing career in the energy and financial sectors, Michael Koerner has dedicated himself to philanthropic work of similarly epic proportions. In his personal life, long-standing passions still burn as bright and steady as the North Star. Driven by generosity and an unadulterated curiosity, he seems heroically intent on evading the limelight.

Ce court film explore les passions de la célèbre musicienne et auteure-compositrice Sarah McLachlan. Avec ses mots et ses dessins, elle nous parle de son univers de création foisonnant, de la fondation du festival itinérant révolutionnaire Lilith Fair et de l'œuvre philanthropique que constitue la Sarah McLachlan School of Music.
