Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Un ingénieur européen de passage à Montréal doit attendre deux jours un rendez-vous d'affaires. Pour tuer le temps, il se promène dans les rues, et se met à la recherche de ses parents, dont la guerre l'a séparé dès l'âge de quatre ans. L'aventure s'amène sous les traits d'une fillette de onze ans et d'une jeune beauté. Rencontres de hasard qui, pourtant, le marquent et l'obligent à se définir. |
