This brave French Canadian film from 1984 tells the story of two underprivileged young men trying to make ends met and fulfill their dreams. They turn to prostitution, encountering a variety of clients who variously want to reform and love them and violently abuse them. Their love for each other is largely unspoken.
The story is now a familiar one and the morality tangled. Can clients really have benign motives and does resorting to paid sex or taking drugs ever achieve anything? Two strong central performances hold this film together. The dialogue is overly sententious at times. A rather poor quality version with, at times intrusive background music and soundtrack overwhelming the French Canadian accented speech, makes it difficult to assess the quality of other aspects of the film.
