My Uncle Antoine

In the heart of rural Quebec, a coming-of-age tale unfolds as a young boy navigates the ups and downs of adolescence amidst the warm and welcoming atmosphere of his family's general store and funeral home during the holiday season.

In the Quebec Eastern Townships, a working-class community is centered around a general store, where Antoine and Cecile work alongside Fernand, Carmen, and Benoit. Carmen's wages go to her abusive father, and she lives at the store with Cecile and Antoine. Benoit, a teenager, has a crush on Carmen. Meanwhile, Jos Poulin, a former asbestos miner, has left his family to work in a logging camp, leaving his loving wife Elise and five children behind.
