Emporte-moi (1999) **

Directed by Lea Pool. With Karin Vanasse, Pascale Bussieres and Monique Mercure. Nostalgic, often meandering drama about a young girl (Vanasse) growing up in Montreal in the early 1960's. She divides her time between fighting with her Holocaust survivor father, french-kissing her brother, having an adolescent crush on a girl, imitating Anna Karina in "Vivre sa vie", running away from home, and collecting stray dogs.
