La petite et le vieux (Blue Sky Jo)

In 1980s Quebec, 10-year-old Helene (Bharucha) dreams of living up to the standard of the cartoon hero "Josephine The Little Musketeer", so much so that she changes her name to Jo to be more like her. Filled with passion and imagination, she sets out to make life better for those around her. When she befriends her curmudgeonly neighbor (Roy), she discovers that his gruff demeanour conceals a heart of gold, and the two form an unlikely bond that enriches both of their lives.

Based on the award-winning novel of the same name, La petite et le vieux is a touching coming-of-age story that wears its heart on its sleeve.

"A bright and rich film, filled with colourful and endearing characters" - Maxime Demers, Le Journal de Montreal
