Pierre Perrault's third feature film on Île aux Coudres, Les Voitures d'eau tackles the problem of the builders and navigators of wooden schooners, in an age of iron ships, international competition and monopolies.

Lefebvre agreed and filmed him over four years, working alone with a small Hi-8 camera.
