The 7th Jutra Awards were held on February 20, 2005 to honour films made with the participation of the Quebec film industry in 2004.[1]
Bittersweet Memories (Ma vie en cinémascope) lead the ceremony with nine nominations and five awards, including Best Actress for Pascale Bussières. This was Bussières' second acting award, having previously won Best Supporting Actress for Set Me Free (Emporte-moi).
Looking for Alexander (Mémoires affectives) was nominated for five awards and won four, including Best Film, Best Director and Best Actor for Roy Dupuis. Love and Magnets (Les aimants) won three awards, including Best Screenplay and Best Supporting Actress for Sylvie Moreau, who tied for the award with Brigitte Lafleur for The Five of Us (Elles étaient cinq).
The Last Tunnel (Le dernier tunnel) set the record for the film with the most nominations without receiving one for Best Film, with eight nominations. This record would be broken at the 11th Jutra AwardsbyBabine.
Céline Bonnier became the first actress to be nominated for both Best Actress and Best Supporting Actress during the same ceremony, and the second performer to do so after Luc Picard who first achieved this feat three years prior. Unlike Picard, she didn't win either award.
The award for Most Successful Film Outside Quebec went to The Barbarian Invasions (Les invasions barbares) who had won the same award the year before.
