Marcel Giroux is a Canadian film producer. He co-founded the company GPA Films in Montreal with André Pelletier in 1983, using it to make documentary films, advertisements, music videos and other productions.[1]
In 1989, after Pelletier died, Giroux shifted the company's focus to feature films and television.[1][2] In 1997, he was nominated for the Genie Award for Best Live-Action Short Film for Zie 37 Stage.[3]
While many producers considered the novel The Little Girl Who Was Too Fond of Matches by Gaétan Soucy a poor choice for basing a film on,[4] Giroux purchased the rights.[5] He asked director Simon Lavoie if he would be interested in such a project in 2013; Lavoie claimed to be a fan of the novel and accepted the offer.[4] On 26 April 2016, Telefilm Canada announced financial support for Giroux's production.[6] For The Little Girl Who Was Too Fond of Matches, Giroux was nominated for the Canadian Screen Award for Best Motion Picture.[7]
