Squat (french: Ailleurs) is a 2017 drama film directed by Samuel Matteau, in his directorial debut. It had premiere at the Quebec City Film Festival 2017.
After a criminal attack, Thierry and his friend Samu decide to flee the suburbs towards downtown Quebec.
It was initially going to be released in September 2016, but was delayed for the addition of visual effects.
In his review in Le Soleil, ÃÂric Moreault said that the film has "a lack of breath and intensity (...) A great first attempt that suggests good things, as long as Samuel Matteau has the means to realize his ambitions." In Films du Québec, Charles-Henri Ramond said that "several characters are poorly defined, but the overall intensity is very real."
