The Vultures (French : Les Vautours) is a Canadian drama film, directed by Jean-Claude Labrecque and released in 1975. [1] Set in 1959 at the end of the Maurice Duplessis era in Quebec politics, the film centres on Louis Pelletier (Gilbert Sicotte), a young man whose mother has just died, and who is coping with a trio of aunts who are much more interested in what they stand to inherit from their sister's estate than in supporting their nephew. [2]
Labrecque released a sequel film, The Years of Dreams and Revolt (Les Années de rêves), in 1984. [1]
