Production



The most gruesome scene for Lucie Laurier remains the one where Winnie poses naked in front of a class of young artists. She said, "Filming is one thing and seeing yourself on the screen is another. Even if it's not easy to shoot naked in front of 30 people, and I was shaking like a leaf, it didn't bother me too much, because there was great respect on the set. But on screen, this scene, frankly, I didn't find it beautiful at all! I console myself by telling myself that I was not playing a pin-up ..."

Awards



Miclette received a Genie Award nomination for Best Supporting Actress at the 17th Genie Awards."Over-the-edge Canadian films poised for Genie nod". Canadian Press, November 24, 1996.
