ABOUT

Lucile Parry-Canet is a Canadian film director, cinematographer, and artist based between Gespe’gewa’gi (Gaspésie) and Tiohtià (Montréal). A graduate of Concordia University's Mel Hoppenheim School of Cinema (2025), she is the founder of LUCA Productions, a production company dedicated to creating purpose-driven, artistically bold, and environmentally conscious films.

 

She has received the international Young Ones Portfolio award (2025), Best Regional Short at Festival Émergence for Cement, the Special Jury Prize at Cinema on the Bayou for Résonance (2024), and Nanlite’s Spark Award for Floodgate (2023).

Her films blend poetic minimalism with a strong sense of place and social awareness, often shot outdoors or underwater in close relationship with land, memory, and movement.

 

Her latest feature documentary, Héritières (Legacy), co-directed with musician Karine Pion, won at the Doc Edge Festival. The film brings together more than twenty women across generations and cultures in a musical and poetic exploration of maternal legacy, healing, and the collective heritage of women across generations.
