Summer Crisis

In the summer of 1969, Bernard, a Gaspesian fisherman’s son, arrives in Percé to find work. He meets Paul, Jacques and Francis, Quebec independence activists who have come to open the “Fisherman’s House”. Their aim is to politicize young travellers and offer them lodging. The trio quickly upset the local authorities and war is declared. The situation degenerates and violence breaks out, Bernard and his new friends must put aside their peaceful discourse and join the "Front de libération du Québec" (FLQ).
