Le film d’animation Le chandail, réalisé par l’Office national du film du Canada, à partir de l’oeuvre littéraire Le chandail de Hockey de Roch Carrier, est typiquement canadien. Il porte sur nos icônes nationales et met en valeur des notions universelles comme la rivalité et la camaraderie, la dualité culturelle et les traits communs.

Par le hockey et le charmant récit de Roch Carrier, notre but est de mieux faire connaître aux apprenants la langue française et la culture canadienne.

Outre le film, le cédérom Le chandail de hockey contient des heures d’interaction à trois degrés de difficulté:
• vidéoclips d’une entrevue avec l’écrivain, Roch Carrier
• art canadien et entrevue avec le peintre populaire, Marcel Dargis
• pages du catalogue Eaton, automne-hiver 1946-1947
