Catherine, a concert pianist, is surprised one night by the arrival of her best friend from childhood, Marie-Alexandrine (Max), whom she hasn't seen for 25 years. Catherine and Max were Québec's most promising young pianists in the mid-1960's when the adventurous Max gets pregnant. She wants to keep the child, but her mother forces her to give him up for adoption; afterwards, Max leaves Québec and music. Now, years later, she returns, obsessed with finding her son. She locates the adoption records, and social services contacts her son to ask if he wants to see her. He refuses, but she keeps trying. Is a relationship with him possible? And what about her musical talent?

Léolo es un niño que vive en un humilde barrio de Montreal, atrapado en una sórdida existencia. Cada noche intenta evadirse por medio de los recuerdos, los sueños y su desbordante imaginación, pero la cruda realidad familiar interrumpe siempre sus fantasías: tiene un padre obsesionado por la salud intestinal de toda la familia, un hermano culturista que vive preso del miedo, dos hermanas que padecen trastornos mentales, un abuelo a quien nadie presta demasiada atención y una madre enorme que domina el microcosmos familiar.
