00:07 Mon Oncle Antoine ran the general store in a small Quebec mining town a few years back.
00:21 Grumpy, lovable, he lived on gin and thrived on people. But when it came to the dead, he had to

00:45 One Christmas Eve, he found out a lot about life. Love.
00:52 Sex.
01:13 Violence. Sacrilege. Death. Rebellion.
01:36 This was a time when people wrestled with life. And many dreams were broken.

02:01 Monique Mercure, Linne Champagne, Jacques Gagnon, and many others. Directed by Claude Jutras.
02:14 A great Quebec film, funny yet sad. A bittersweet, achingly beautiful recollection of people,
02:27 moments, and feelings everyone has shared.
