Following is a selective list of fall releases from Montreal-based distributors.

In this special report, Playback steps back to look at both the Montreal World Film Festival and the issues surrounding production in Quebec. Included are interviews with producers, distributors, funding agency managers and service providers on a range of topics including the benefits and trends of production in Quebec, the simmering conflict between domestic and location interests, developments in deal-making, acquisitions and coproductions with European partners, and the lay of the land at WFF. Stories by Leo Rice-Barker.
