Sisyphus

2024 · 64 min

Armed with only a shovel, artist Victor Pilon accomplishes the unimaginable by moving 300 tons of sand in a physical and psychological performance lasting over 180 hours in the heart of Montreal's Olympic Stadium. Inspired by Albert Camus' The Myth of Sisyphus, this acclaimed tour de force is magnificently captured in an eventful film that emotionally reminds us that behind every human tragedy lies a journey as liberating as it is salutary. A masterly production to match a spectacular performance, accompanied by the notes of the Montreal band Dear Criminals.
