Synopsis by Dan Pavlides
This historical re-enactment of the victory of Canadian farmers over British troops in 1837 serves as a foreshadowing of the French speaking nationalist movement in Quebec during the late 1960s. A young woman and her boyfriend return to witness the conflict, which was a response to the police action by the British. The two watch the historical recreation and discuss the historic parallels between the past and the current revolutionary separatist movement.
