The story of Pauline Julien, a singing icon and independence activist, across several decades of Québec history.

In a Quebec cotton mill in the early 1900s, when a teenage girl injures her hand on a machine, her elder sister works tirelessly to keep her from being fired.

Nina, a young and headstrong exotic dancer, finds herself stranded in the far North. She convinces her recent customers, five men on a bachelor hunting trip, to put her up for a few days. In this masculine microsociety, by turns hilarious and philosophical, Cynthia starts to feel a sense of belonging she never has before. But a mysterious stranger’s arrival changes the course of this improvised holiday forever. Both raw and dreamlike, Hunting Daze offers up a unique universe where humour, horror, the uncanny, and the sensual combine.

After bragging about stealing from a convenience store, Félix is pulled in by his new friend Dave into a plan to rob a local bank. Hungry for recognition, he dives in without hesitation. But the thrill fades fast as things unravel, and the guns turn out to be all too real. This is almost a true story.

When her sister runs away from the Christian community where they've lived, Clara decides to set off to Montreal in search of her, and discovers the world, doubt, and price of freedom.

No-one wants to play football with Gaby now that she has breasts. Like every other year, the 13-year-old is spending the summer with her dad on a small island off the Canadian coast – and she is not about to pretend that she’s suddenly a different person.

It's the end of summer. When Alicia picks up Charlie after work with her new car, they get to taste their new freedom. But their evening turns to disappointment, forcing Charlie to confront her emotions about her best friend's imminent departure.
