Plot

[edit]

In 1987, 17-year-old Ricardo (Jean-Carl Boucher) is facing the usual teenage problems, such as having a crush on a classmate named Sarah, despite already having a girlfriend named Marie-Josée, and having a car. With his three friends, he spends time going to parties and getting drunk. When they fail to enter a bar after graduation, Ricardo decides to open a bar for underaged teens.

On his first night of work, when he was supposed to have sex with Marie-Josée and lose his virginity, Ricardo breaks a BMW, putting the damage and repairs on the restaurant's budget, and is immediately fired; an argument with his father causes the latter to start making wine illegally. One night, Ricardo and his friends find an expensive radio in a car and they steal it to gain money and they become thieves. After being able to enter the bar, Ricardo gets unwillingly closer to Sarah.

On his prom day, Ricardo learns that Marie-Josée had an affair with a man in the bar Ricardo always tries to go to and they break up; he also learns his project of bar got made in a near region and one of his friends has been admitted to the NHL. To get revenge on Marie-Josée, Ricardo has a date with Sarah and goes awry when Sarah announces her homosexuality and Ricardo finds Dallaire, one of his friends, with Marie-Josée. Trying to talk to Marie-Josée, Ricardo gets drunk on his father's wine and is arrested by the police after the officer finds the stolen radios and Ricardo tries to flee. Thinking Dallaire tricked Ricardo for having a date with Marie-Josée, Ricardo blames Dallaire for the stolen radios.

The next morning, an argument occurs with his parents over Ricardo's activities and his father's illegal business. The argument is interrupted when Ricardo's sister announces Marie-Josée has called. Ricardo then takes a bike and cycles three hours to Trois-Rivières, 136 kilometres (85 mi) to have sex with Marie-Josée.

It is later revealed that the relationship has ended after 3 years and Ricardo never saw Dallaire again.
