Annie St-Pierre

Director Annie St-Pierre graduated from L’Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) with a bachelor’s degree in cinema. Her graduation film, Jean-Pierre Ronfard: sujet expérimental, was selected for the RIDM film festival and Rendez-vous du cinéma québécois. Other films include the documentary Migration Amoureuse and Fermières (All That We Make), a feature documentary. An apostle of independent cinema, St-Pierre has collaborated as a scriptwriter, casting director, actress and producer with many in the Montreal film community such as Matthew Rankin, Denis Côté and Monia Chokri. She is the co-producer of the two last Denis Côté films: Wilcox, Social Hygiene and is now in production of Le plein potential (Your Higher Self), a feature documentary on the universe of life-coaches around the world. As of late October 2021, she is also in development for a feature fiction film she is writing. Her live-action short film Like The Ones I Used To Know (Les Grandes Claques) premiered at the 2020 Sundance Film Festival and has screened in more than 50 international festivals where it won 15 Awards including the Oscar-qualifying Award at Heartland Film, the Indy Shorts International Film Festival and Best Direction at SXSW.
