LES FILLES DU ROI a musical film by Corey Payette- Trailer (2024)

Adapted from the award-winning musical by Corey Payette and Julie McIsaac, Les Filles du Roi (The King’s Daughters) tells the powerful story of a young girl, Kateri and her brother Jean-Baptiste whose lives are disrupted upon the arrival of les filles du roi in ‘New France’ (now Montreal) in 1665. They forge an unlikely relationship with the young fille Marie-Jean Lespérance-whose dream of a new life is more complicated than she could have imagined. Over the course of a year, Mohawk, French and English journeys collide, setting the stage for the Canada we know today.
This musical epic, told in English, French and Kanien’Kéha (Mohawk), had its theatrical premiere in 2018 at The Cultch’s York Theatre to stellar reviews, with critics calling it “a work of monumental importance” and a “sumptuous reimagining of our history.”
