Un film de cinéastes

The grim routine of suicides, murders, shootings and mass killings in North America is as much in the streets and schools as it is in the home. The subject of firearms is controversial – and the presence of weapons in the home leaves no one indifferent. For some, guns represent a potential threat; for others, it is a legitimate right. However, if firearms arouse a fascination associated with power, force and strength, then surely the possession of one needs to be questioned. A review of our time and the question of arms, this film talks of a controversial, destabilizing and explosively hot topic.

Lucien Francoeur, rock poet of the French imagination of North America, lives the destiny he has chosen for himself at 200 miles an hour.

By retracing the mixed heritage of First Nations peoples and Quebecers, painting a modern portrait, and sketching a human geography, this film helps us (re)discover the beauty and strength of our common territory: the Americas.
