Synopsis

Life is not going very well for brother and sister Maryse and Benoît Bossé. Maryse and her husband Alain have grown apart; Benoît, the eternal child, still lives with their widowed father, and his relationship with single mother Nathalie is being sabotaged by her son.

MUBI's take

Infused with a deadpan sense of humor and flourishes of magical realism, Quebecois director Stéphane Lafleur’s impressionistic follow-up to Continental: A Film Without Guns is a study of misfit siblings in Francophone Canada. A winterland for dropouts, set to the sounds of scintillating synth-pop.
