Lise Payette: a little higher, a little farther

Lise Payette: un peu plus haut, un peu plus loin is much more than a biography. It’s a page from our history. Active for decades on the Quebec public scene, an outspoken feminist, radio and TV host, politician, minister and author, Lise Payette continues to challenge us. This documentary revisits her exceptional career in the company of two women for whom Lise Payette is of particular importance: her granddaughter Flavie Payette-Renouf, who directed the documentary, and journalist Sophie Thibault.
