Fernand le père Noël

Directed by François Pierre Breau

Produced by Christine Aubé

Despite fragile health and outliving a survival prognosis by several years, Fernand, the father of filmmaker François Pierre Breau, continues to play Santa in New Brunswick’s Acadian peninsula. Many would say that spreading happiness during the holidays is what’s keeping him alive.
