Alexis Normand Tour
In February and March 2023, Les Rendez-vous de la Francophonie presented Alexis Normand's cross-Canada tour.
Her live music delivers elegant songwriting, finely crafted lyrics, and nuanced interpretations that delve into her doubts about identity and her insecurities around language.
The musical performance was followed by a screening of the singer-songwriter and filmmaker’s first short documentary film, French Enough, a National Film Board production for which she wrote and directed. By her open generosity, Alexis hopes to shine a light on the points of tension faced by many Francophones in minority-language situations.
The short film is still available for free viewing at https://www.nfb.ca/film/french-enough/.
