À force de bras (1988)

-In 1838, the Société des Vingt-et-un, formed in La Malbaie, undertook the development of the vast Saguenay-Lac-Saint-Jean region, which had been under the control of the Hudson's Bay Company until then. Logging was the primary objective. But colonization, supported by the clergy, accelerated the occupation of the territory. / Very well documented, the film recalls the great moments of a regional history made of fierce struggles and exemplary successes.
