A portrait of senior citizens - all musicians, painters, writers and actors - who live at the Chez-Nous des Artistes in Montréal. They may no longer have careers, and the world of the hip and successful may have forgotten them, but they continue to dream, work, flirt and hold eccentric opinions. In between concerts, passionate Scrabble(r)(r) tournaments, card games played with a large print deck, and a heartbreaking aria sung under a full moon by an opera diva who never really made it, they present tender, witty and wise insights about life. Filmmaker Carole Laganière asks tough questions about success, failure or approaching death, but respect and pleasure infuse this film.

Relocated to Rachel Street, the squatters take up residence to claim their right to decent housing. They want to raise awareness about the housing crisis. In the midst of a municipal election campaign, the squatting initiative unfolds under intense media scrutiny.
