Curiosidades

Gamma Rays is a Canadian comedy-drama film, written and directed by Henry Bernadet and released in 2023. Made with a cast of non-professional actors, the film centres on three interconnected stories about young immigrants in the Villeray–Saint-Michel–Parc-Extension district of Montreal, Quebec.

Production and distribution

The film was Bernadet's solo directorial debut, following television credits and the 2008 film West of Pluto (À l'ouest de Pluton) which he codirected with Myriam Verreault. To cast the film's leading roles, he sought out amateur actors at Georges-Vanier secondary school in Villeray.

It premiered at the 71st San Sebastián International Film Festival in September 2023, before going into limited commercial release in Quebec in November.
