Passé, puis... Futur.
Director: Samuel Bégin
Cast: Jean-Claude Charron, Gaspard Jaquet, Joëlle Boily, Joaquim Claude
Past, then... Future. is a 2026 short about an elderly man who must confront his past and search for inner peace. Painting becomes the central means through which he attempts to understand his memories and reconcile himself with what has already happened.
The film approaches its subject through a reflective and visually oriented style, using art as a bridge between memory and the present. Its concise format makes the emotional journey more impressionistic than plot-heavy, with the emphasis placed on personal reflection and the passage of time.
Past, then... Future. has a limited independent distribution profile, with festival and filmmaker platforms likely to carry it first.
