La bouchère de Trois-Pistoles

July 13, 9:00 PM
Location : Place Shamrock
Language : Original French version

In a Quebec where even artisanal butcher shops increasingly rely on industrially produced meat, Renée LeBlanc-Paulin has made a radical choice: to work exclusively with whole local carcasses, which she and her team butcher each week in her shop in Trois-Pistoles. Around her, a network of committed women — a chef, a livestock farmer, an abattoir manager, and an institutional cook — help sustain a food system that is as fragile as it is essential. The Butcher of Trois-Pistoles follows their collective struggle to build a viable alternative model while confronting the very real challenges of raising, slaughtering, processing, and distributing locally produced meat.

Themes : Agriculture, Economy, Environment, Social Justice, Rural Communities
