Desc: Le doigt dans l'oeil: Directed by Julien Fréchette. Located in the heart of the Manicouagan Reservoir on the North Shore, Île René-Levasseur is the remnant of the fifth largest meteorite impact on Earth and a still untouched portion of the boreal forest. The granting of a logging permit on this ancestral territory of an Innu nation triggers an ideological, economic, legal and political struggle; thus confronting the pretensions and ambitions of each other. The documentary Le doigt dans l'oeil demystifies the craze generated by this "symbol territory" for all the protagonists of the conflict and highlights the main challenges facing modern Quebec.
