J'me voyais deja

Many young people dream of careers in the performing arts, but even those who are aware of the long odds against them are sometimes surprised by just how competitive an actor's life can be. Filmmaker Bachir Bensaddek offers a glimpse into the struggles of thirteen would-be thespians in the documentary J'me Voyais Deja. The Conservatoire d'art dramatique de Montréal is one of Canada's best-respected schools for the performing arts, and Bensaddek and his crew follow the thirteen members of a graduating class, all of whom are vying for a place in the conservatory's graduate studies program.
