Day to day life in Irénée-les-Neiges, an isolated village of 215 inhabitants in Québec, changes forever when the young Simon Dubé dies in a car accident. His family and friends try to come to terms with his death, but no matter how much time passes, they remain inconsolable. A winter of extreme conditions settles on the agonizing community, and strange figures are seen walking in the fog on the edge of the village. A new tragedy awaits…

Shown at the last Berlinale, Ghost Town Anthologyimmerses its audience in the life of an inward-looking rural community. By making the tropes of genre films his own, Denis Côté questions our relationship with others and makes us face our demons. The unfolding tragedy slowly traps the viewer until they are completely submerged in the ice-cold landscapes of Canadian hinterland – beautifully shot on 16mm film.
