Filmography
He purchased La Fête from founder Rock Demers in 2015 with plans to revive the studio's Tales for All (Contes pour tous) series of children's films, which had by that time greatly declined in prominence from its highly influential era in the late 1980s and early 1990s. He officially relaunched the series in 2023 with the film Coco Farm (Coco ferme) in 2023, and followed up in 2024 with Miss Boots (Mlle Bottine), a modernized update of the 1986 Tales for All film Bach and Broccoli (Bach et Bottine). He was a producer and screenwriter, but not the director, of both films.
