CGiii Comment

A long-winded account of a rather bizarre and wholly uninteresting story.

No surprises. No tangible talent. No concrete answers.

Dull and forgettable.

Langlois should have been capable of making something out of this flat story - injecting a little interest into the mix - what happened?

Too dull even for improvement!

An American is found naked and amnesiac in a vacant parking lot in Montreal in 1998. He says his name is James Brighton, but the only thing he's sure of is that he's gay. What happened to this young American in search of freedom ? That's what Sylvie, a criminology student, tries to find out.
