Born in Rivière-du-Moulin, in Saguenay, Martin Rodolphe studied painting in several studios in Chicoutimi, alternating between charcoal and acrylic. He gradually abandoned painting and enrolled in the interdisciplinary art program at the University of Quebec in Chicoutimi (UQAC) in 1996 - cinema and video concentration. During his career, he has completed several training courses at the National Film Board (NFB) and has also participated in writing workshops as part of Telefilm Canada's “Writing in the long form” program at the National Institute of Image and Sound (INIS). A scriptwriter and documentary filmmaker by training, he directed several genres, including film studies and essays, before finding his true niche: psychological drama. In 2009, he began a perilous shoot on the Haut-Fond Prince lighthouse located at the confluence of the St. Lawrence Estuary and the entrance to the Saguenay Fjord. Selected by several festivals, this latest opus, entitled Haut-fond Prince, won him the Creation Grant at the Regard International Short Film Festival in Saguenay in 2012. In 2015, he directed the short film Notre-Dame-des-Monts with the collaboration of the Canada Research Chair, for a sound dramaturgy at the theater of the University of Quebec in Chicoutimi.
