Actors Kevin Parent

Kevin Parent vit sur les rives de la Baie-des-Chaleurs, la terre de ses ancêtres, son havre de paix. Pourtant, sa tranquillité risque d’être troublée par la levée du moratoire québécois sur l’exploitation d’hydrocarbures dans les eaux du Golfe du Saint-Laurent : une porte grande ouverte pour envahir la baie de plateformes pétrolières et gazières. La peur d’une marée noire, des retombées économiques incertaines, des conflits d’intérêts apparents, Kevin Parent s’inquiète de l’avenir de son golfe. Afin de mieux comprendre des enjeux qui souvent le dépassent, il décide de partir à la rencontre des acteurs d’un conflit qui semble inévitable entre gouvernements, pétrolières, premières nations, environnementalistes et simples citoyens. Une version moderne de David et Goliath.
