Summary

As the star of Gilles Groulx’s Le chat dans le sac (1964), Barbara Ulrich epitomized a new sense of youthful vitality and freedom then emerging not only in Quebec’s cinema, but in its society at large. Sixty years later, Ulrich joined filmmaker Renaud Lessard for a cinematic experiment, one that provided her with the means to overcome her fears and define herself on her own terms.
