Les rayons gamma

There’s Abdel, whose quiet life is turned upside down by the arrival of his extrovert cousin, whom he takes in for the summer; Fatima, who longs for a more stable existence and is trying to get away from her bad associations; Toussaint, who, on a fishing trip, finds a bottle washed up with a message inside. There’s also Naïma, Maya, Ayoub and the others, a pastel castle lining the freeway, electric cicadas, a monolith and very powerful rays.

A blend of fiction and documentary, Les rayons gamma is a dramatic comedy filmed with the youth from the St-Michel district of Montreal.
