The "Acadie Vivante" showcases the resilience of contemporary Acadian culture by presenting many traditional customs that are still practiced today. These traditions are documented through original video-based interviews conducted with women and men who still practice these customs or who have adapted them to modern-day settings, as well as with various specialists who contextualise these traditional practices. Various aspects of Acadian culture, such as folklore, material culture, food, as well as Acadian language and identity, are illustrated in these traditions.
