« A neighbourhood at the word's epicentre. Unforgettable faces. We're in Côte-des-Neiges, Montreal's most cosmopolitan borough, where 75 ethnic groups live side by side.

But the human diversity here, combined with the economic crisis, leads to tensions.

A sensitively crafted film set to urban music composed by Montreal jazz artist Harold Faustin. »
