In general, a person of very diverse occupations and hobbies. Xavier Dolan and Montreal were born in 1989. To shoot for rollers pharmacy company began in childhood.

The short film with the participation of Xavier Dolan “Mirror Summer”, directed by Etienne Desrosiers, won the Berninale prize, and was also highly appreciated at film festivals in San Diego and Kiev. The following year, Dolan played a role in the film “Martyrs” by Pascal Lies.
The acting career of Xavier Dolan was successful, but this was not enough for him. He wanted to try his hand at directing and was willing to risk it. He wrote the script himself, and then invested all his savings in the production of the film. The film had titles.
"I killed my mother." He was partially autobiographical. In the film, Dolan reveals some aspects of his own life and makes no secret of being gay. The film was more than successful. He won three nominations at the Cannes Festival, and was even nominated for an Oscar, but did not receive it.
In 2010, Xavier Dolan made another film, Imaginary Love. It was shot super fast – in less than a month, due to the fact that Dolan not only directed the film and played a role in it, but designed costumes for the characters and edited the tape himself. At the festival in Cannes, the audience applauded for a long time after watching. The program "Special Look" awarded the film the prize "Prix Regard Jeune". In 2012, Xavier Dolan’s “Laurence Anyways” was released. /
