Sophie Bissonnette

Sophie Bissonnette is a Canadian filmmaker and producer. After graduating from Queen's University, she began making films in Montreal and released most of her documentary films in the 1980s. In these films, Bissonnette illustrated social and political justices, both of which were topics that were covered commonly by many Quebecois filmmakers. However, her films were distinguishable through exploring the women's perspective of male-dominated social engagements and incidents in French Canada.
