We're not going to lie, being brought to tears by a film about dairy farming in Canada wasn't on our daily to-do list, but, thanks to the masterful storytelling of director Vincent René-Lortie, our coffee is a little more diluted this morning.

Created for Les Producteurs de Lait du Québec (PLQ) by agency lg2, New Generation tells the story of a father-daughter relationship as they encounter the innocence, independence, and inseparability that punctuate their lives together on a small-scale dairy farm.

Shot through Denim, the film is imbued with heart by René-Lortie's delicate direction, aided by gorgeous cinematography from Alexandre Nour and a swift but suptuous edit from Xavier Lévesque.

“Opportunities to create projects like this in advertising are rare," explains René-Lortie. "We wanted to tell a story grounded in family - the awkward phases, the challenges, and the fleeting, beautiful moments that shape us as we grow. Bringing it to life was a true adventure, fueled by so much heart and an incredible cast. Special mention to our lead, Jeanne, who shaved her head on camera for the film."
