-A sequence plan that doesn't care about the consequences. An evening without a date, a street corner without a corner, a crowd without a name at the entrance of a nightclub, a nightclub with surprises. Subjective camera. Point of view of a selective doorman. Better to be on the guest list than to make the line-up. Constant coming and going. Club kids, flyer boys, door divas, model posters, cigarette girls, barmaids, dancing queens, psycho freaks, drag bitches, sex addicts, candy children, sugar daddys. Nervous, authentic, duly improvised, bilingual, just like Montreal. (Canada). Crazy subtitles, in the opposite language, poorly translated, relating a different version of the speech. Conversations without head or tail, just like the characters. Words that are futile, rarely subtle, often very funny, out of clumsiness. Silences as revealing as spontaneously superficial dialogues. Groove IS in the heart. In the mixed toilets of the bar, camera hidden behind the mirror, we find the same characters, in the same clothes, holding the same conversations. Suddenly, their humor provokes yellow laughter.
