French Immersion, subtitled It's Trudeau's Fault in English and C'est la faute à Trudeau in French, is a 2011 Canadian comedy film.[1] The dialogue in this film is a mixture of both English and French. The film was the directorial debut of longtime film producer Kevin Tierney, best known for his work on the comedy film Bon Cop, Bad Cop.[2] This story follows a group of Anglophones who come to a remote town in northern Quebec, in order to learn French.[3]
In an interview with Northernstars.ca, a website dedicated to Canadian film history, Tierney mentioned a potential sequel where instead of a French immersion course, the characters would be taking an English immersion one in Regina, Saskatchewan.[4]
