“Q-Bec My Love” is a Canadian film that was released in 1970, directed by Jean Pierre Lefebvre. The movie is a satirical allegory that explores sexuality in the entertainment and advertising industry through a series of disconnected vignettes. Shot in black and white, the film has a direct lighting source that creates surreal vignettes, often featuring the crew in the shots, blurring the lines between reality and satire.
Throughout the film, we follow the romantic and sexual relationships of Q-Bec (played by Anne Lauriault) with her boss, husband, and lover, portrayed in a series of professional, sexual, and romantic situations. The film’s satirical nature is enhanced by the blurring of lines between reality and fiction, and the surrealistic depiction of Q-Bec’s experiences. Alongside Anne Lauriault, the film stars Denis Payne, Jean-Pierre Cartier, and Larry Kent.
