Wikipedia article"'Ma Nouvelle-France'" (meaning "My New France") is a theme song from the French-Canadian film 'Battle of the Brave (Nouvelle-France)', performed by Celine Dion. The pop ballad was released as a promotional single on 1 November 2004, in Canada. "Ma Nouvelle-France" was written by Dion's longtime collaborator Luc Plamondon and produced by Christopher Neil ("Think Twice," "Where Does My Heart Beat Now"). Patrick Doyle composed the music. Background and releaseThe historic drama 'Nouvelle-France' takes place in the middle of the 18th century, as France leaves Canada. The film was directed by Jean Beaudin and features Grard Depardieu among others. Contacted five months earlier by the producer Richard Goudreau, Dion's husband and manager Ren Anglil was impressed by the film. Then he gave his green light so that the singer could perform the song "Ma Nouvelle-France." Dion recorded this song on 3 October 2004, in Las Vegas. It was featured on the 'Nouvelle-France' soundtrack (19 November 2004) and Cline Dion's later album 'On ne change pas' (3 October 2005). The music video, directed by Jean Beaudin, features dialogues from the film. It was included as a bonus on the 'On ne change pas' DVD in 2005. "Ma Nouvelle-France" peaked at number 7 in Quebec.
