16e soirée des Jutra – winners

The 16th soirée des Jutra was held tonight at a gala ceremony at the Monument-National in Montreal's Quartier des spectacles. The evening was hosted by Pénélope McQuade and Laurent Paquin.

Daniel Roby's Louis Cyr : l'homme le plus fort du monde (Louis Cyr: The Strongest Man in the World) was the top winner of the night. It had led the field with eleven nominations and came away with nine awards including Best Film, Best Actor (Antoine Bertrand), Best Supporting Actor (Guillaume Cyr), and the Jutra Billet d'or for box-office success.

Louise Archambault's Gabrielle was next with five trophies. Archambault herself won for Best Director and Best Screenplay while Mélissa Désormeaux-Poulin won for Best Supporting Actress. Gabrielle was Canada's submission for the Foreign Language category of the Academy Awards.

No other films received more than one prize. Pierrette Robitaille was named Best Actress for her role in Denis Côté's Vic + Flo ont vu un ours (Vic and Flo Saw a Bear). The winner for Best Feature Documentary was Marie-Geneviève Chabot's En attendant le printemps (Waiting for Spring).

Micheline Lanctôt was presented with the honourary Jutra-Hommage 2014.
