Elderly Jean-Baptiste Lambert reflects back on his youth as he is being chased by police in the old Roussel textile mill on Rhode Island. He recalls how, in 1920, his father Valmore led the factory workers of Québec origin in a noisy uprising against their French bosses. Jacques Roussel, the mill manager, was attracted to Lambert's sister Madeleine and put her through school. She became Roussel's mistress, then later, his second wife. In the meantime, Valmore had become involved in a battle against the Irish bishop, who wanted to make English mandatory in all parish schools. The battle led Valmore to murder, and then suicide. <108mn>
