Details: 72-year-old Madeleine (Monique Mercure) decides that she won't impose the misery of her illness on those who are dear to her and that she won't outlive her own conscience. Too proud to bear her degeneration, loving her children and her friends too much to force them to take care of her during this terrible ordeal, she plans to end her life. Beforehand, she wants to undertake a little farewell tour, see her family again and savor one last time some landscapes that have particularly touched her. She then hires as a driver Zoé (Suzanne Clément), a 35-year-old musician she meets by chance and who seems to be going through a difficult period. La Brunante recounts the great trip that these two women will take from Montreal to Percé. The film follows the initiatory path in which Madeleine and Zoé embark without their knowledge. Because the progression of Madeleine's illness as well as the trip will force their intimacy. This intimacy in return will bring shocking revelations for both. They will learn from each other to see things from a different angle and change their perceptions of love and what constitutes their reason for living. La Brumante offers an affective, psychological and ultimately spiritual adventure with the fundamental objective of questioning the mystery of life and praising its splendour.
