''Mon oncle Antoine'' ((:mɔ̃ nɔ̃kl ɑ̃twan)) is a 1971 National Film Board of Canada (''Office national du film du Canada'') French language drama film. Québécois director Claude Jutra co-wrote the screenplay with Clément Perron and directed what is one of the most acclaimed works in Canadian film history. The film examines life in the Maurice Duplessis-era Asbestos Region of rural Québec prior to the Asbestos Strike of 1949. Set at Christmas time, the story is told from the point of view of a 15-year-old boy (Benoît, played by Jacques Gagnon) coming of age in a mining town. The Asbestos Strike is regarded by Québec historians as a seminal event in the years prior to the Quiet Revolution. Jutra's film is an examination of the social conditions in Québec's old, agrarian, conservative and cleric-dominated society on the eve of the social and political changes that transformed the province a decade later.〔 ==Critical acclaim== The film was selected as the Canadian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 44th Academy Awards, but was not accepted as a nominee.〔Margaret Herrick Library, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences〕 It was also entered into the 7th Moscow International Film Festival.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=7th Moscow International Film Festival (1971) )〕 The film has twice been voted the greatest Canadian film ever in the ''Sight & Sound'' poll, which is conducted once each decade. The Toronto International Film Festival placed it first in the Top 10 Canadian Films of All Time three times. This film has been designated and preserved as a 'masterwork' by the Audio-Visual Preservation Trust of Canada, a charitable non-profit organisation dedicated to promoting the preservation of Canada’s audio-visual heritage.〔(http://avtrust.ca/masterworks )〕 It was featured in the Canadian Cinema television series which aired on CBC Television in 1974.
