Director Biography - Alex Côté

I was born in the Eastern Townships, Quebec, Canada. When I was only a few weeks old, my father took me fishing with him on a boat. At the age of 3, I was fishing like a big boy. A little later, at the age of 12, I started hunting. That's when it all started. With my friends, we started filming our hunts. I absolutely wanted to film each of our adventures.

This passion for filming my outdoor activities grew exponentially. Respect for the environment and the game I hunt, is at the heart of my concerns, and I think that's what motivated me so much. I wanted to change the vision that people have towards hunters/fishermen.

After a few years, I decided to film other things than hunting and fishing adventures, like our snowmobile trips, spearfishing journey and different outdoor activities. Now I specialize myself in telling stories about the great outdoors. Whether it's hunting, fishing, snowmobiling, diving, skiing, hiking or anything that takes place on the countryside, I'm ready to create!

Director Statement

I first found Ramon through one of his viral posts on instagram. I thought his rod-making work was really unique. After contacting him to find out more about him, I discovered that his background was quite impressive. After a lot of thought and visualization, I decided to go and join him in the Netherlands to see for myself. And it was so worth it! It's a project that's close to my heart, because of its story, its morals and the people I've met.
