All Things Are No Longer Equal - Festival de cinéma de la ville de Québec
1h 6m
Cinéma Beaumont
2026
Blending video art, documentary and music video, Martin Bureau’s film explores the abuses of Western society, at once ravaged by late-stage capitalism and unable to free itself from it. A visceral image and sound experience, All Things Are No Longer Equal juxtaposes an aesthetic of excess and domination with the measured critical commentary of philosopher Alain Deneault, calling for reinvented forms of collective and local solidarity.``
Screening with director Martin Bureau in attendance.
Martin Bureau
Filmmaker and painter Martin Bureau was born in Saint-Ubalde, grew up in Saint-Félicien and now lives and works in Quebec City. He has developed a multidisciplinary art practice that combines documentary film, painting and video installations. His films, including the features A Tent on Mars (2009) and Playa Coloniale (2012), co-directed with Luc Renaud, and the short subjects Hell Runs on Gasoline! (2015) and Bonfires (2017), have been screened at over a hundred festivals in Canada and internationally, earning multiple nominations and awards. His visual art works have been shown in renowned galleries, artist-run centres, biennale exhibitions and museums in Canada and around the world, and are part of many public and private collections. Bureau deploys his varied techniques to cast a critical eye on social, geopolitical and environmental issues, using a language he describes as a “poetics of disaster.”
