Produced as part of the NFB’s Souvenir series, Caroline Monnet’s Mobiliser draws inspiration from the National Film Board of Canada’s archives, the landscape, and the rhythms of nature to offer a gripping journey from the Far North to the urban South.
Set against ever-changing landscapes, the film observes the gestures of daily life with intensity and precision. Driven by the powerful rhythms of the polar punk track “Uja” performed by Tanya Tagaq, the film highlights the tension between territorial roots and urban expansion. Through this reappropriation of the archives, Caroline Monnet crafts a sensory and organic work that captures the strength and resilience of a people on the move.
