A four-hour, two-part CBC Big Ticket mini-series that takes a compelling look at the formative years of the man who became our 15th Prime Minister. Miniseries brings to life the turbulent Quebec society of Trudeau’s youth. The drama covers the pivotal moments of his life before becoming Prime Minister: the death of his father, his battles with Quebec Premier Maurice Duplessis, the Roman Catholic Church, René Lévesque, his friendship with the other “wise men” Gérard Pelletier (Gary Levert) and Jean Marchand (Patrick Labbé) and the launching of the boat-rocking political magazine Cité Libre. But even as he made his mark politically, romantically he struggled. Choosing reason over passion, he left more than a few broken hearts in his wake.
