Shooting the film “1837”

A colour photograph of a scene from a film that takes place outdoors in winter. In the foreground there is a suitcase on the snow, which is being used to hold a clapperboard. The scene features two men sitting on a red sleigh pulled by a brown horse.

The team that produced the film “1837” shot some scenes in winter in a rural area near Saint-Eustache. Although visually it is particularly successful because of the absence of electric wires in the area chosen, this scene did not make the final cut.
