The twins of Sainte-Justine

Description

In the vibrant Montreal of the 1960s, two young women, seemingly worlds apart, forge their own destinies. Alionor Guérin, raised in a bourgeois and artistic environment, manages to break through as a singer, despite the demands of the profession, and enjoys the privileges of stardom. In Saint-Césaire, Ginette Caron, from a modest working-class family, leaves school to work in a factory, determined to become independent. Both women navigate the constraints of their surroundings, family expectations, and their turbulent relationships. Their paths intersect, but each fights in her own way against the conventions weighing on women, on the cusp of the Quiet Revolution. And what if a secret were to shatter their certainties?
