Historical TV series about a family of French nobles living in New France at the time of the British conquest. Nicely done. Many episodes in order on Youtube but not sure about subtitles.

More contemporary. Lebanese Québécois go back to the old country to retrace family secrets amid civil war and other dramas...

A classic. Was remade in English last year.

They all would be repertory (art house) type films. Of course, in some countries the clientele for such movies is larger than in others, and makes up a larger share of the population.

Movies mentioned here that got decent international releases were: Incendies, Jesus de Montreal, Black Robe, CRAZY, Dr Lewis, Leolo.

Séraphin, Marguerite Volant, 15 février 1839, Octobre were basically Quebec-only releases.

I recently saw a Montreal-based filmed called "Heartbeats" (Les Amours imaginaires, 2010), directed by rising-star French-Canadian actor/director Xavier Dolan. Really impressive music, plot, and scenery showing the streets and neighborhoods of Montreal. For anyone interested in cultural interactions of modern day Montreal, especially the youth culture, it's a really great film.
