Title
Reconquering the Conquest: Quebec
Abstract
A view of Quebec society and politics, circa early 1990s. Divided into fourteen short chapters, this film looks at the impacts of the violent brand of Québécois nationalism of the 1960s and 1970s; the motives of unemployed workers in a one-industry town who support Quebec independence; how English Quebecers see their future should Quebec separate from Canada; linguistic views of Quebec's language laws; the historic myths of Québécois nationalism; and the assertions of the Cree Nation of Eeyou Istchee (northern Quebec) to its lands as a counter to Québécois nationalism.
