Martin Villeneuve      

In his film "Mars et Avril," Martin Villeneuve brings his sci-fi romance graphic novel to glorious life.

The musician who plays otherworldly music on one-of-a-kind instruments, the genius who designs the instruments inspired by a woman's body, and the photographer they both love. An old-fashioned love triangle is at the heart of Mars et Avril, a bold and dreamy story sci-fi set in a future Montreal where the Champ-de-Mars subway line takes you right out to Mars.

Martin Villeneuve made the film based on his two graphic novels, also titled Mars et Avril. Villeneuve is the former artistic director for the ad agency Sid Lee that works with Cirque du Soleil. He's now a director at Moment Factory, and working with comic book masters Benoît Sokal and François Schuiten on a new script, Aquarica.
