Marie-Sissi Labrèche (born 1969 in Montreal, Quebec) is a Canadian writer, most noted as the cowriter of the 2008 film Borderline."Borderline director aims for provocative, not perverse; Charlebois's debut is dark portrait of troubled soul". Montreal Gazette, February 4, 2008. The film's screenplay was based on two of Labrèche's published novels, Borderline and La Brèche."Ladies behind the lenses; It's a banner year for female directors at festival that has already launched many careers". Toronto Star, September 5, 2008. At the 29th Genie Awards in 2009, Labrèche and her cowriter Lyne Charlebois were cowinners of the Genie Award for Best Adapted Screenplay."Night belongs to Passchendaele".
