Filmmaker Chloé Robichaud would often listen to classical music in the background to help focus her writing process — a subliminal influence that led to the creation of the main character of “Days of Happiness,” which world premieres in Toronto Sept. 9.
While “Days,” like “Tár,” is about a female conductor — still not a common sight on the podiums of major orchestras — the comparison stops there. Robichaud’s film has a warmer emotional arc. While writing the screenplay, Robichaud brought on Yannick Nézet-Séguin — the artistic director and principal conductor of Montreal’s Orchestre Métropolitain, which “plays” the orchestra in the film — as a consultant and talked to female orchestra conductors. “I was going to rehearsals and observing every detail of how conductors use their hands, and how they speak with the musicians.
Demerais regularly sent Robichaud videos of herself honing her conductor moves. “It was amazing to watch her gain confidence, and very moving the first time that she had to rehearse in front of the orchestra,” the director said. “Imagine how crazy it must be to pretend to be a conductor in front of a real professional orchestra.”
