Couper le cordon

Sarah is a young Quebec woman on the eve of her 20th birthday. Athletic, disciplined, and ambitious, we follow her reflections on the life choices she must make, torn between family expectations and values and her great need for emancipation. Cutting The Cord deals with universal issues such as the search for identity, the weight of tradition, and the courage to follow one’s own path. But it is also an example of successful integration. Sarah was born here to parents who immigrated to Quebec thirty years ago. She is particularly close to her mother, whose efforts to reconcile her attachment to her traditions of origin with her daughter’s aspirations are evident. Sarah is also fortunate to be surrounded by a circle of childhood friends, thanks to the stability offered by the social housing complex where they live as neighbors, which is designed to be a supportive living environment.
