About La balloune
With more than 70 years of career, Claude Crest is more than ever a living legend of comedy. From his childhood in Hochelaga-Maisonneuve to the historic success of his number La Balloune, this documentary will take you through an inspiring life that is far from being at its last chapter.
Directed by Maxime Gervais, Anthony Hamelin, La balloune leans on a strong ensemble — Maxime Gervais, Daphnée Côté Hallé, Jean-Sébastien Girard — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about comedy titles of 2022.

7.0Call Me Lucky
2015 7.0
An inspiring, triumphant and wickedly funny portrait of one of comedy’s most enigmatic and important figures, CALL ME LUCKY tells the story of Barry Crimmins, a beer-swilling, politically outspoken and whip-smart comic whose efforts in the 70s and 80s fostered the talents of the next generation of standup comedians. But beneath Crimmins’ gruff, hard-drinking, curmudgeonly persona lay an undercurrent of rage stemming from his long-suppressed and horrific abuse as a child – a rage that eventually found its way out of the comedy clubs and television shows and into the political arena.
