After completing a Bachelor's degree in film studies at UQAM, Marc-Antoine directed a number of independent short films, including PRE-DRINK (2017), which received recognition at more than a hundred international festivals and won the Best Canadian Short Film award at TIFF and the IRIS for Best Short Fiction at the Gala Québec Cinéma.

Continuing on his quest for unrestrained cinema, he directed and produced his first feature-length fiction film, MISTRAL SPATIAL, which was released in Quebec theaters in early 2023.

In addition to his new short film EXTRAS, the result of nearly 8 years of gestation, Marc-Antoine is currently completing post-production on another short, while writing his next feature film.
