From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lac-Mégantic: This Is Not an Accident (French: Lac-Mégantic : ceci n’est pas un accident) is a Canadian documentary television series, directed by Philippe Falardeau and released in 2023.[1] The series centres on the Lac-Mégantic rail disaster of 2013, profiling both the bureaucratic failures that allowed the disaster to happen and the regulatory inaction that has hampered efforts to prevent a similar tragedy from happening again.[2]
The series premiered at the 2023 Canneseries festival,[3] and was screened at the 2023 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival,[4] in advance of its television premiere on May 2, 2023, on Vidéotron's Vrai streaming platform for documentaries.[2]
