Director
The ideal of youth is at the centre of this eloquent film, mixing documentary and fiction, art and experimentation. Demonstrating both formal and narrative freedom, Bélanger weaves a deliberately loose weave in which the initiatory journey of two young people, wandering through Montreal in search of a job, unfolds. But not just any job. The two idealists want a job that will satisfy their desire for freedom, peace and respect. Of course, even though the breath of renewal from Expo 67 still floats here and there, the world they encounter does not correspond - by far - to their aspirations. Strangers in this country that tells them nothing, they come across brutally, materialism, violence, and egocentrism.

В начале ХХ века в Париже дружили два товарища - австриец Жюль и француз Джим. Гуляли, разговаривали, разминались в спортзале, обсуждали знакомых девушек, с которыми сентиментальному белокурому Жюлю везло меньше, чем Джиму, а счастья хотелось обоим. А потом в их жизнь вошла роковая женщина - Катрин. Жюль влюбляется и просит Джима не быть помехой его роману с девушкой. Но не все так просто. Катрин ведет себя так, будто в ее груди бьются два сердца, и одним она пламенно любит Жюля, а вторым - с не меньшей страстью Джима.
