On April 7, 2024, Frédéric Back would have turned 100.

Delve into the world of this two-time Oscar-winning animator and great environmentalist. Originally from Alsace, he was gifted with immense creative talent and fought against a widespread disregard for the environment. Over time, he tailored his message: “Let us save nature to protect our Earth!”

Having collaborated with him on two projects, Hélène Jasmin will highlight his achievements and his work in this lecture, so that his star may continue to shine.

This lecture is presented by the Société historique de Montréal.
