Summary: | This paper is based on a collection of notes I made after watching the film Quintet and after taking a walk in one of the locations where this film was shot. I considered how the film presents an Arctic climate as the weather conditions of an unknown, catastrophic future. The second part of the paper comes from the notes made in 2011 while walking on Île Notre-Dame, where the film was shot. Looking for any possible traces of the Quintet set, I speculate on how the barren landscape of the artificial island evokes its own uncertain situation and temporality. Inspirée par des ballades sur les lieux de tournage (le Nunavut et l'île Notre-Dame, à Montréal) du film Quintet, de Robert Altman, cette étude s'intéresse à la représentation du Nord et de l'hiver en tant que lieux post-apocalyptiques.
