Fernand le père Noël

Directed by François Pierre Breau

Produced by Christine Aubé

Despite poor health and a survival prognosis that expired several years ago, Fernand, the father of filmmaker François Pierre Breau, continues to play Santa Claus on the Acadian Peninsula in New Brunswick. Many would say that spreading joy around him during the holiday season is what keeps him alive.
