Mainstage season

Je viendrai moins souvent

Camille moves to Montreal at the age of 22. At the very same moment, Pauline, her 92-year-old grandmother, is moved to a long-term care facility. Both uprooted, losing their bearings. Their visits allow them both to encounter Pauline’s decline and her unraveling memories. The granddaughter decides to gather her grandmother’s words, allowing her to tell her story before she can no longer do so.

In this adaptation of her podcast Quelqu’une d’immortelle, Camille Paré-Poirier brings to life her last conversations with her grandmother. Between personal audio archives and unavoidable ethical observations, the Quebecois creator conveys in an intimate setting the inevitable and overwhelming nature of grief. An honest account of caregiving in the face of a healthcare system that has most definitely lost its grip.
