The film takes us on a journey into the world of the 80s in French-speaking Canada. Tough economic constraints, failed dreams and broken family relationships determine people's reality. Nevertheless, compassion finds its way: the old man who protects the main character Jo like an angel. Her job colleague, who helps without expecting anything in return. And the young Jo herself, who is constantly confronted with the shortcomings of adulthood as she grows up. But she is never discouraged from looking for the good in people for her own small happiness and helping selflessly.
