Symansky Adam
Quebec Centre producer Adam Symansky has an interest in projects that address the ongoing «national debate,» as in his productions A License to Remember: Je me souviens, a quirky look at the many meanings behind Quebec's motto; and Traitor or Patriot, Jacques Godbout's look at his great uncle, a former Quebec premier whose achievements have been largely ignored by nationalists.
Adam's recent credits also include Discordia, an inside look at a controversy between pro-Palestinian and pro-Israeli students at a Montreal campus. He was NFB producer on Alter Egos, exploring the lives of two acclaimed film animators on very different career paths.
In his 22 years at the NFB, Adam has produced films by some of Canada's most talented documentary directors. He's an Academy Award® winner for Flamenco at 5:15 and produced such landmark series as The Valour and the Horror, The King Chronicles and Part Three of The Champions.
