A plunge into the summer of 1974 among the underground youth of Baie-Comeau and Hauterive. Searching for their place in industrial society and the job market, many young people try to find their way and break their isolation through artistic creation. The Saint-Jean festival offers them a platform to express themselves and shake up the established order.
