A general look at the Québec art scene--what painters and sculptors say about their work, about the place of art in society, and what has fired Québec's particular interest in art. The views of well-known artists are heard, as well as those of several museum directors, art critics, and some members of the lay public who confess to be not entirely in accord with the more modern art forms.

This “collage” on the place of art in late-1960s Quebec society is an archival document that provides a good illustration of how people of the time misunderstood art and its growing importance in an awakening society. In addition to viewing the introduction of the film, which is an extremely valuable document for history classes, students can be asked to expound on their own points of view about art, their understanding of it and their relationship to it.
