About
In 1999, Paul and his partner Julie experienced beautiful moments with their young daughter. They are looking for a house in Montreal and frequently see their family, notably Julie's parents who live in St-Nicolas, a suburb of Quebec City. But the illness has hit Roland hard, the proud and generous patriarch of the family, who tries as best he can to hide the ultimatum he is suffering from his children. Life being what it is, Roland will have to be admitted to a palliative care center while his loved ones, including Paul, will have to come to terms with the idea of his death. In the process, Paul will take up drawing.
