Description:

1968: Rex Prince, 22 years old, directs a small movie with films he finds here and there. He lives only for his movie and envies the Great Zenon, a cyclop from Belmont Park, who creates movies just by thinking. The night Rex meets him, he falls in love with Paula Paul de Nerval, a beautiful bearded lady; unfortunately she's leaving for Louisiana that very night. Six months later, haunted by her memory, Rex goes to Louisiana to find Paula. To defeat a rival, he becomes a human cannonball at the Cirque du Bonheur where Paula works. 1997: 29 years later, the autobiographic movie of his tragic love with Paula Paul is played at the Crémazie cinema. <1h 34mn>
