Four Anglo-Canadians and a New Yorker find themselves in a two-week long total French immersion program in the fictional, remote town of St-Isidore-du-Coeur-de-Jésus, tucked away somewhere in Northern Quebec. The place is perfect for total immersion since, according to the most recent census, 99% of the population is comprised of pure laine Quebeckers for the most part unilingual French, fervently nationalist, and all, save one person, named Tremblay.

Em seus sonhos, Jean-Marc LeBlanc (Marc Labrèche) é um cavaleiro valente, uma estrela dos palcos, um artista que vive com mulheres a seus pés e em sua cama. Mas, na realidade, é um sujeito muito diferente. Cidadão comum, seu trabalho é ouvir pacientemente pessoas que chegam a seu departamento procurando ajuda. Em casa, sua mulher está muito ocupada para prestar atenção nele e seus filhos adolescentes não lhe dão a mínima. A tentação de seguir vivendo em sua terra de sonhos é muito grande, mas Jean-Marc decide se dar uma última chance no mundo real.

For a year, marked by seasonal change in an atmosphere charged with the strangeness of Indians and the demons of the woods, we see Maria at work and prayer, struggling with decisions, choosing to stay in Canada, in love with François, seeking to change his rough behaviors, and dealing with extraordinary loss.

In a little village at the end of the 1890's, a young woman offends all the 'right-thinking' villagers by allowing men in her house in the absence of her husband.

Her culpability is still a subject of debate today.
