On the eve his birthday, Olivier Saint-Pierre has plenty of worries. He is in love with Béatrice, a young French girl passing through Quebec. Hélène, his “official” girlfriend, suspects that he has a crush on Béatrice. Then, his brother, Laurent, wants to publish a novel that alludes to adventures of a completely different kind that Olivier would prefer to keep secret. But Olivier’s biggest problem happens on his birthday. All 12 years of his life, a ghost has appeared to him. Ever since, on every birthday, a passage through time opens to the past and Olivier and his friends are unwillingly hurtled into unimaginable adventures. As always, they end up at the police station trying to explain and only manage to come off as crazy. As he is becoming a teenager and his love life is becoming more complicated, Olivier fears that again this year he’ll tumble back into the past. Because the problem is coming back from it.
