Nô is a
1998 film by director
Robert Lepage.The title is a
pun which reflects the film's dramatic structure, linking the
1980 Quebec referendum (in which the "no" won) to
Japanese Noh theatre.The film is set in
1970 at the height of the
FLQ bombings in
Montreal, known as the
October Crisis. During the Crisis, Prime Minister Pierre Elliot Trudeau instituted the
War Measures Act, which resulted in martial law on the streets of
Montréal and over 500 people arrested without warrant for being "FLQ sympathizers". The central character, Sophie (Anne-Marie Cadieux), is an actress working in Japan at
Expo '70; her boyfriend Michel (Alexis Martin) is an FLQ member preparing for a bombing.
