95 minutes, 1970

Instructed by his bosses to report news in a neutral manner, journalist Jean and his girlfriend leave the city to interview simple folk living in the heart of the Laurentians. He is hoping to find true freedom and happiness away from the confines of society. At first, they are filled with joy as they leave the city, but then they find that their new isolated lifestyle is not what they bargained for, and the adventure ends in failure. Is it delusional to think that we can escape the collective society to which we belong?
