Current project

Soutien à la création

Artist and video-maker Céline B. La Terreur is currently working on a series of documentaries on the Duplessis Orphans.

The average age of the Duplessis Orphans in 2016 is between 60 and 70 years.

Since 1992, these men and women have courageously fought to have their rights recognized.

As well as serving as valuable records of a dark period in Quebec’s history, these documentaries will be useful tools for the victims (the Duplessis Orphans) as they demand recognition and justice from the Federal and Provincial Governments, the Collège des Médecins, the Roman Catholic Church, the Public Curator, the Direction des poursuites criminelles et pénales, and the Ministère de la Santé et des Services sociaux.

The interviews with the victims are uncensored accounts of their personal stories and claims.
