Jean-Marc-Vallée Award

At Their Height wins the Jean-Marc-Vallée Award

It was at Chabot’s school — the film’s primary shooting location and emotional heart — that filmmakers Mélanie Carrier and Olivier Higgins were awarded this week the prestigious Jean-Marc-Vallée Audience Award, presented by the Festival de cinéma de la ville de Québec (FCVQ). The award takes the form of a unique statuette created by artist Marc Séguin.

This recognition highlights the strong connection audiences have formed with At Their Height, an award-winning documentary offering a sensitive and luminous exploration of childhood, parenting, and the fundamental questions that shape our lives.

Upcoming Screenings and Festivals

MÖ FILMS is also pleased to announce several upcoming screenings:

  • At Their Height will be presented in official competition at FICFA (Moncton) in the category Best Medium or Feature-Length Documentary.

  • The documentary will screen this fall in Montreal at Cinéma Public, and in Gatineau at Théâtre de l’Île.

  • Additional cinema-talk screenings will take place across Québec in winter, spring, and fall 2025.

Each screening becomes a new opportunity for dialogue, reflection, and reconnection with the fragile magic of childhood.
