"La Course destination monde" is a Canadian reality television series, which aired on Télévision de Radio-Canada from 1988 to 1999. The series was a filmmaking competition which sent young, emerging filmmakers from Quebec around the world to make short films about their destinations, with prizes awarded at the conclusion of each season to the best films coming out of the competition.

The show premiered in 1988 as "La Course des Amériques", sending filmmakers to destinations in North and South America. The second season, "La Course Amérique-Afrique", continued to highlight destinations in the Americas as well as opening to destinations in Africa, while the third season, "La Course Europe-Asie", centred on destinations in Europe and Asia. From the fourth season onward, the show was titled "La Course destination monde", and permitted filmmakers to travel to anywhere in the world.

Pierre Chamberland works as a journalist for a major daily newspaper and lives in the heart of the very popular Plateau Mont-Royal district. His brother François Chamberland, a young actor with limited talent, continues to dream of the day when we will eventually recognize his “tremendous” potential. Robert Gascon, François' best friend, is an eternal 30-year-old teenager with a nebulous past who lives on the hook of society. Finally, Anaïs Fontaine, Pierre's friend, talented freelance graphic designer, succeeds thanks to her strong personality to take her place among the three roommates. Even if Pierre and Anaïs are of the age of reason, they do not yet live together. Anaïs has her own apartment and Pierre shares his loft with François and Robert, when the latter are willing to leave him some space. The Plateau characters also have their meeting place, a small neighborhood pub where the charming Béatrice and the friendly Jean-Paul welcome our friends almost daily.
