Plot

A young woman (Carole Laure) from rural Quebec comes to Montreal to find out the whereabouts of her father. She takes a job as a topless cowgirl singer in a nightclub owned by Armand (Willie Lamothe). Through her father's mistress, Blanche (Denise Filiatrault), she discovers he was working in a lumberjack camp and travels with Armand and Blanche to find him; however, it turns out he has been murdered by the camp's owners.

Reception

The Death of a Lumberjack is one of Carle's best-known films in Quebec, although it's virtually unknown in the rest of Canada.[2][3] It won Canadian Film Awards for Supporting Actor (Lamothe) and Musical Score.
