Sundays

About This Movie

Sundays offers a peculiar glimpse into life in Bas-Saint-Laurent, Quebec, weaving three loosely connected stories that capture the essence of a lazy Sunday. The film has this odd, almost dreamlike quality, with a gentle pacing that allows the viewer to linger on the moments. The imaginative escapades of the young siblings contrast sharply with the Colombian priest's awkward attempts to connect with his congregation, creating a fascinating juxtaposition of innocence and existential dread. The teenager's encounter with the harsh realities of work is grounded yet surreal. The performances are understated but effective, lending authenticity to the characters. It's the kind of film that stays with you for its atmosphere rather than any traditional narrative drive, and there's a charm in its imperfections that speaks to the beauty of life's quieter moments.
