Biography

Roger Frappier worked in all areas of the film business, from film critic to television commercial director to director/ producer of the experimental feature documentary ''Le Gand film ordinaire'', until he found his true vocation as a hands-on producer. While at the
National Film Board of Canada The National Film Board of Canada (NFB; french: Office national du film du Canada (ONF)) is Canada's public film and digital media producer and distributor. An agency of the Government of Canada, the NFB produces and distributes documentary f ...
in the early 1980s, he assembled a group of writer/directors who collaborated on developing edgy, urban dramas. The script for ''Le Déclin de l’empire américain'' emerged from the process that Frappier had set in motion. With that film’s phenomenal success, Frappier rose to the ranks of the top producers of feature films in Quebec. He left the NFB in 1986 and founded Max Films with Pierre Gendron, producing ''Un Zoo la nuit'' in 1987, the winner of 13 Genie Awards, still a record. His many other films include ''Pouvoir intime'', ''Anne Trister'', ''Jésus de Montréal'', ''Ding et Dong, le film'' and ''Cosmos''. Members of the Cosmos collective went on to make two of the most celebrated works in recent Québécois cinema, ''Un 32 août sur terre'' and ''Maelström'', underscoring Frappier’s eye for fresh talent. His 2003 production, the affable ''Seducing Doctor Lewi''s, became one of the highest-grossing films at the domestic box office in Canadian film history.
