Montreal during the 1970s surge of nationalism and an abandoned Italian village in the latter 1980s -- this work describes subjects who are themselves crossed by cultural and political contradictions. Caught in the rush of history and desperately seeking personal connections, the five characters evoke the immigrant's cleavage and post-colonial paradox: because of the symbolic anchors, one can never really leave home; because 'home' and the subject are continually shifting, one can never return. (3 men, 2 women).
