Brain cancer survivor, Bouchez (Dany Boucher) is a still alive and kicking author/producer/history teacher, based in the Montreal area. As a writer, he optioned one script "The Awakened Dream" a short-animated fantasy 3D for Imax 3D, wrote many others as well as produced some amateur short films. Then, he wrote "The Old Man Who Spoke to Angels", a supernatural/crime TV series pilot, a fantasy/sci-fi "The City in the Egg", based on the same title novel by the bestselling author Michel Tremblay, and a fantasy/drama "A Soul with a Black Shirt" which all has been selected and praised by some screenplay festivals juries so far.
After being very ill and having near-death experiences, I started experiencing paranormal phenomena myself. Therefore, if I decided to write this project, it’s because I literally dreamt about it several times during the night as a premonition. Looking for answers, I met a clairvoyant named Robert who helped me live with my new consciousness and inspired the series’ main character. Since, I am also a fan of the genre and many facts in the story were inspired by real events, this series is dear to me and my motivation to see it produced has no common measure. Writing this project helped me live through the challenges of my new life and not to go (too far) into madness.
