The film is set at a family cottage, as summer holidays are drawing to a close. Watched closely by their parents--who have grand ideas, but small minds--two teens think that they are in love, without really knowing themselves. Along comes an exciting rival, highly artistic, adding a new dimension to the mix. The illusion--friendship? love?--dissipates. The generation gap, Québec's matriarchy and betrayal between the sexes are a few of the themes underlying the film's simplicity and humour. An important production by a well-known director, this 1967 film has retrospective value, as it represents the early work of Raoul Duguay. <68mn 23s>
