Singer-songwriter Claude Gauthier stars as a young man who leaves his provincial fishing community behind to find success in the music industry. He meets and falls in love with a waitress (Bujold), but when he wins a singing contest he must reevaluate their relationship. Informed by the separatist movement in Québec, Brault’s first fiction feature is presented in a refreshingly naturalistic style.
