Synopsis

Montréal, 1967. Monique Sparvieri, une jeune mère a vécu, durant sa jeunesse, sous le joug de la pauvreté et de la violence dans le quartier Centre-sud de Montréal. Après des échecs amoureux cuisants, des fréquentations douteuses l'amènent à explorer le milieu de la criminalité. Laissant sa marque par d'audacieux cambriolages de banques, celle qu'on surnomma Monica la mitraille doit jongler avec sa nouvelle vie de talentueuse criminelle qui, croit-elle, empêchera ses enfants de subir les mêmes affres sociales qui l'ont modelée. Le long métrage tente de tracer un portrait de la célèbre braqueuse de banques.

Le curé d'un sanctuaire et d'un lieu de pèlerinage (qui n'est pas nommé mais ressemble fortement à l'Oratoire Saint-Joseph) engage le jeune comédien Daniel, nouvellement de retour à Montréal, afin de monter une version rafraîchie de la Passion du Christ dans les jardins de ce lieu de culte. Ce dernier réunira une petite troupe de comédiens et en fera une interprétation libre, grandiose et sensible. Lors d'une représentation, des forces de l'ordre interviennent et la lourde croix tombe sur lui. Daniel est transporté en ambulance à «l'Hôpital St.-Marc», un endroit bondé et impitoyable, mais n'y reçoit aucun soin. Il quitte l'hôpital en état de choc et descend dans le métro. Inquiets, deux condisciples l'accompagnent... Daniel, en train de mourir, tient un dernier discours sur l'amour humain qui reste si inaccessible aux gens et qui finit par les tuer: «C'est le manque d'amour qui tue les gens», dit-il. Daniel perd encore connaissance dans le métro. Il est reçu avec humanité et professionnalisme à l'hôpital juif, mais il est trop tard. Ses condisciples donnent «son corps» aux fins de la transplantation. Hautement symbolique, un homme reçoit le cœur et une femme les yeux.

Continuing seventeen years after Arcand's The Decline of the American Empire, the film centres on an exploration of the characters first met in the original film and their children, newly introduced. The older generation are still largely social-democrats and proponents of Quebec nationalism, but both political and economic developments after the “Quiet Revolution” of the 1960s, as well as their own aging, make their left-wing stance seem somewhat anachronistic.
