Ma voisine danse le ska
|
Summer in Montréal. On a street corner, a two-minute encounter between Auguste, an eccentric photographer, and Isabel, who becomes his unwitting
subject. Six months elapse. During the gloomy Montréal winter, Auguste has a hard time getting over the death of his wife and daughter, killed in a car cash the previous summer. Isabel, living with her daughter Leica, is desperately in need of a soulmate. By the time Isabel and Auguste become neighbours, they are both at the end of their respective tethers. They enter into an unusual relationship, one nurtured by the fact Leica reminds Auguste of his dead daughter.
