In Saint-Boniface, the French Quarter of Winnipeg, where everyone knows each other, the rumour mills work overtime, young people can’t figure out where they belong and French mixes with English. Natasha and Charlotte have big dreams. They’ve already decided. Tomorrow, they’re leaving their little Western Canadian francophone community for the great metropolis of Montreal. It’s a tough pill to swallow for their best friend Alexis. Tonight, the trio parties one last time in their neighbourhood. FM Youth is a look at being young and French in Western Canada.
Film is in French and English with English subtitles.
