Denis Côté

Since 2005, Denis Côté has gained a solid reputation as an independent filmmaker on both the Quebecois and international scenes. After directing many short films and working for a number of years as a journalist and film critic (1995-2005), he made his feature film debut with Les états nordiques (Drifting States, 2005). Worthy of note in his filmography, which has space for both fiction and documentaries, are titles such as Curling (2010), which received the Best Director and Best Actor awards at the Locarno Festival, and Vic + Flo ont vu un ours (Vic + Flow Saw a Bear, 2013), earning him the Alfred Bauer Prize at the Berlin Festival. He competed for the Golden Bear at the German competition with Boris sans Béatrice (Boris without Béatrice, 2016) and Répertoire des villes disparues (Ghost Town Anthology).
