Struggling to return to normalcy after being caught up in a tragic
event, the parents of a working-class family in Montreal do everything
they can to help their beloved son cope with guilt and rage, but will it
be enough? This searing drama on courage, heroism and despair explores
the long private shadow that an act of public violence casts.

Jean Emile Fournier - Male, early twenties. Jean is an engineering
student at l'Ecole Polytechnique in Montreal - a student who has
consistently achieved top marks.  Bright, generous but shy and a bit of
a loner, Jean is the apple of his parent's eye.  Though his parents -
particularly his mother - put a great deal of pressure on him, Jean is
on the road to becoming a successful engineer. but that dream begins to
crumble when Marc Lepine enters Jean's classroom on 6th December 1989.
Jean is among the male students who left the room. The experience begins
to prey upon him, the guilt creeping into his nightmares and turning
into rage.
