2023-10-25 18:53:46

Paul Houde has traveled hundreds of miles in an RV across the United States over the past few months.

We follow him in the series Paul in all his statesan adventure that we promise is as “captivating as it is informative” and which will be available from November 14 on the Vrai platform.

Paul is accompanied for the occasion by the historian Francis Primeau.

In the 10 60-minute episodes, the two men visit significant places in American history. They make stops in 11 states and 15 cities, as they travel back in time to tell the story of 10 historical topics.

In the trailer released Wednesday, we see the two men in Memphis, Tennessee, where they visit Graceland, the estate of the late Elvis Presley, the legendary Sun Studio where the first rock’n’roll single was recorded and the Lorraine Motel where Martin Luther King was assassinated in 1968. Then they arrive in Los Angeles, California, where they are interested in the crime scenes of the OJ Simpson and Charles Manson cases. Once in San Francisco, further north, they return to the hippie movement that was born there.

Their journey also took them to New Orleans, Louisiana, then to New York State to the site where the Woodstock festival took place in 1969.

The images are very beautiful if we rely on what we have seen so far and Paul Houde shares his emotions and his great erudition throughout the series.

Produced by Pixcom, in collaboration with Quebecor Content, the series Paul in all his states will be available on Vrai from November 14.
