From the director of Défense d’aimer (image+nation 17) comes a moody teenage triangle. While on a night train to the family cottage, handsome art student Simon meets the playful and mysterious Louise, igniting a life-altering chain of events. With Louise in tow, Simon reunites with his family and finds the hostility in the air more tangible than ever. Things become even more complicated when Mathieu, his long-ago teenage love appears. Simon’s video camera documents the good times and the bad as the dynamic among the three friends changes, leaving his sense of self – and need for love – in its wake. In this family where secrets are the norm, only acts of extreme desperation can make amends for long-ago decisions and broken hearts. – KS
