This documentary attempts to understand why so many comedians experience mental health issues, a condition that stands in stark contrast to their profession. Anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts: these are the heavy subjects they dare to tackle on stage. Cathy Gauthier, Coco Belliveau, Jean-François Mercier, Mario Jean, Maude Landry, Preach and Simon Gouache testify.
Yvon Deschamps, Patrick Huard, Louis-Josée Houde, Martin Matte, Mariana Mazza... For its final classic Gala in French, Juste Pour Rire assembled the absolute biggest names in Quebec comedy. More than thirty of our favourite stars delivered a Gala for the ages, and brought the house down. Juste Pour Rire truly saved the best for last!
Patrick Huard invites 10 comedians to this unique experience that borders on torture. They will spend six hours together in an enclosed space where it is forbidden to laugh. The last one to laugh will win the contest, as well as $100,000 for the foundation of their choice.
