En 1940, à Montréal dans le quartier Saint-Henri, la Seconde Guerre mondiale qui ravage l'Europe amène l'espoir d’un terme à la dépression économique, qui maintient jusque-là Saint-Henri dans la pauvreté. Florentine Lacasse y travaille au comptoir-restaurant des Quinze-Cents. Elle remet son petit salaire à ses parents pour aider à la subsistance de sa famille nombreuse. Jean Lévesque séduit Florentine, mais sa pauvre condition ne convient pas à ses ambitions. Il essaie de la faire s'amouracher d'un copain, Emmanuel Létourneau. Le film raconte l'histoire de ces trois relations avec, en arrière-plan, la vie familiale difficile des Lacasse.

Set in New France in 1634 (in the period of conflicts known as the Beaver Wars), the film begins in the settlement that will one day become Quebec City. Jesuit missionaries are trying to encourage the local Algonquin Indians to embrace Christianity, with thus far only limited results. Samuel de Champlain, founder of the settlement, sends Father LaForgue, a young Jesuit priest, to find a distant Catholic mission in a Huron village.
