From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

François Prévost (born November 6, 1965) is a Canadian documentary filmmaker from Quebec,[1] most noted as co-director with Hugo Latulippe of the 2004 film What Remains of Us (Ce qu'il reste de nous).[2] The film was a Genie Award nominee for Best Feature Length Documentary at the 25th Genie Awards[3] and the winner of the Jutra Award for Best Documentary Film at the 7th Jutra Awards.[4]

Prior to making What Remains of Us, Prévost was a contestant in the 1994-95 edition of La Course destination monde,[5] tying with Ricardo Trogi for the win at the end of the season.[6] Latulippe, his co-director on What Remains of Us, was also a contestant in the same season.[5]

He did not continue a career in filmmaking, instead turning to medical practice.[7] In 2023, he was appointed director of medical affairs and services of the Cree Board of Health and Social Services of James Bay.[8]
