Claudie Simard had worked for 10 years in journalism at CBC/ Radio-Canada before making the leap to independent production. Her first film, Resilience in Midwifery, was a finalist for the Prix Gémeaux in the category “Best documentary program or series: health, nature, science and the environment”. Throughout the filming of Resilience in Midwifery, Claudie documented her journey to create Premier film; a documentary podcast that traces the path between the first idea and the final distribution of her film, thus creating a conversation around documentary cinema in Quebec.
