Montreal filmmaker Alexandre Trudeau is stepping into new territory with his first narrative feature, Hair of the Bear, a chilling survival thriller set in the unforgiving wilderness. The film follows a troubled teenage girl sent to live with her grandfather, only to find herself in a life-or-death struggle deep in the woods. It’s a departure from Trudeau’s well-known documentary work exploring global conflict and geopolitics. It’s hitting select theatres here in Montreal starting March 20. He spoke with Andrew Carter.
