I had nearly two hours to waste, so I tried this small Canadian crime thriller. It is unknown, not reviewed yet on imdb - and now I understand why - so I said to myself that this small movie deserved to be watched. There is no ambition here or an ambition braked by a serious, severe lack of money to produce. Of course, it is cheap but it is also unfortunately lousy, especially for someone like me who is not interested by this story of losers, those punks who have nothing to do with tough high rank professionals. Now, I must admit that it is certainly close to reality and true life characters. Try it if you dare.... Especially the last gruesome and also awesome brutal, unbearable minutes. It nearly saves the whole.

French-language cinema, whether in France, Québec, or other Francophone regions, explores cultural identity, social change, and the tension between the individual and society. French cinema is not only celebrated for its intellectual experimentation and auteur traditions, but also its success in mainstream comedy, romance, and commercial entertainment. In Québec, films often focus on questions of language, belonging, and community within a distinct cultural landscape.
