In the summer of ’68, Leon Doré (Antoine L’Écuyer) comes close to
hanging himself accidentally. His mother saves him at the last
minute, just like last summer in the pool and like two years ago in
the freezer. At ten, Leon has lots of problems and an overly
fertile imagination. There is Mom (Suzanne Clément) and Dad (Daniel
Brière) who are always fighting and those annoying neighbours who
get to spend the summer at the beach. And then, there’s Lea
(Catherine Faucher), the exasperating girl who’s always right about
everything. When Mom decides to leave everything behind to start a
new life in Greece, Léon is prepared to do anything to kill the
pain – destroy the neighbors' house, become a professional liar and
even, why not, fall in love with Lea. Together, they will overcome
the pain of growing up when you feel abandoned.
