Rémy Huberdeau

Rémy Huberdeau is a trans film editor and filmmaker based out of Toronto. A graduate of the Canadian Film Centre’s Norman Jewison Film Program (Editor’s Lab), Rémy’s first feature credit as an editor was on Pageboy Productions’ BACKSPOT (World Premiere at TIFF 2023). Rémy has cut several episodes of Dominic Desjardin & Rayne Zukerman’s dramedy series PARIS PARIS for UNIS TV & CBC Gem. Rémy is currently cutting GO TOGO, a new animated series by Gazelle Automations for CBC Kids.

Rémy is known for creating the structure and trust required for building healthy relationships that can act as the foundation of rich and meaningful storytelling. This approach can also be described as un cinéma de relations (relationship-based filmmaking).

Rémy’s storytelling foundation was built in documentary film, art cinema and community activism. He studied at Montreal’s Institut national de l’image et du son (L’inis), in the Documentary Cinema Director’s program. Rémy’s documentary Transgender Parents (2014, 45 min) was commissioned by CBC’s Documentary Channel and has screened in festivals and universities around the world. His short film Au pays des esprits / Home of the Buffalo (2010, 4 min) is an operatic quest between father and child, between two genders and among colonial & Indigenous territories. The short bio doc won Best Canadian Film Jury Award at the Inside Out LGBT Film and Video Festival in 2011.
