Junior

This full-length documentary offers a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at our national sport, hockey. Taking in an entire season of the Baie-Comeau Drakkar, this film reveals the daily lives of players and managers on this Quebec Major Junior Hockey League team.

Admired and treated like professionals, junior hockey players are teenagers absorbed by their future. Trainers, shareholders, agents, scouts and parents: all eyes are fixed on these elite young players, even though only a tiny number of them will succeed in playing at the highest level.

      “I liked this feature. I am surprised there is not more as Canada is hockey crazy. Not alot of coaches would let let you see inside, their world. If you really want an eye opener, then go to elite minor hockey and see what some people will do to get their sons on the team. ”
