Dream Tracks

Dream Tracks (French: Les Traces du rêve) is a Canadian documentary film, directed by Jean-Daniel Lafond and released in 1986.

[1] The film is a portrait of the life and work of Quebec filmmaker Pierre Perrault.

[2] Reviewing the film for Cinema Canada, Marika Csano wrote that "It would have been easy for Lafond to be content with a static heroic tableau of Pierre Perrault hunting images.

What makes Les Traces du reve interesting is that we watch Perrault evolve from beginning to end.

Perhaps Lafond was aware that from the idealized opening portrait, Perrault increasingly becomes a vulnerable human being.
