The Night Logan Woke Up (Season 1)

The Night Logan Woke Up (La nuit où Laurier Gaudreault s'est réveillé, 2022) is a Quebec drama from Xavier Dolan you can watch online on iFILM. Mimi-Jeanne comes back to her small hometown to bury her mother, and walks straight into two brothers she hasn't spoken to in thirty years.

She works as a thanatologist, preparing bodies for burial, and insists on handling her mother's herself. Waiting in the house are Jules and Denis, decades of resentment, and one October night nobody in the family ever named out loud. Dolan, who also plays one of the brothers, splits the story between then and now: three kids bound by friendship, and the adults who must decide what they're finally willing to say. The cast includes Julie Le Breton, Patrick Hivon, Éric Bruneau and Anne Dorval.

Six episodes mark Dolan's first work made for television, adapted from Michel Marc Bouchard's stage play. It's a chamber piece about guilt and reconciliation where the silences carry more weight than the lines. Best suited to viewers who like slow European cinema built around a heavy emotional knot.
