Monique Fortier was one of the few women to make her way in the male world of the NFB in the 1950s. But make her way she did. Beginning as a secretary, she graduated to editing and in 1963 she became the first francophone woman to direct her own film, À l'heure de la décolonisation. Her NFB colleague Anne Claire Poirier would make her first film the same year. Fortier subsequently returned to editing, quietly labouring at the Steenbeck, shaping films that helped define Direct Cinema.

Saison 2003 La psychologue Anne Fortier pensait avoir réglé ses comptes avec l'homme qui avait brisé sa vie. En poussant le policier Rouleau au suicide, elle a assouvi son besoin de vengeance. Hier victime, elle est maintenant devenue agresseur, un retournement des choses qui n'amélioreront en rien sa condition psychologique, malgré la sollicitude de son patron Johnson. Pétrie de culpabilité, Fortier s'engage donc dans de nouvelles enquêtes, sans se douter que le véritable assassin des jeunes femmes, le psychopathe Tétreault, est toujours au large. Anne est à la recherche de son équilibre, au sens propre comme au sens figuré, quand Mayrand devient victime de sa propre bavure policière (épisodes 1-2-3). Elle doit ensuite surmonter ses angoisses personnelles pour empêcher une tuerie dans une école (épisodes 4-5). En retrouvant la piste d'un psychopathe, Anne et ses collègues du SAS découvrent un être abominable, bien plus pervers et dangereux que tout ce qu'ils ont connu jusqu'ici (épisodes 6-7-8).
