In a prison of the near future, elderly Quebecois political prisoners serve life sentences. These men and women die one by one under mysterious circumstances.
Etienne (10 years old) and his little brother David (7 years old) share everything: their room, their toys, but especially their unbridled imagination. When David mysteriously disappears, Etienne, with the help of his friends, tries to prove that he has been abducted by aliens.
Set in the Cloudy Falls residence, a run-down apartment complex in Niagara Falls that seems destined to be torn down, the film tells the story of a handful of its tenants, chosen at random by the narrator, Rita (Susan Berger), the building’s glib superintendent. They include Terry (Andrew Moodie), an uptight, middle-aged man who grows enamoured of the erratic, young drifter squatting next door; Brigit (Grace Glowicki), a spiritual debunker who exposes psychic frauds on her little-seen YouTube channel; Riley (Amanda Martinez), a compulsive liar whose many tall tales are starting to catch up to her; and the collection of neighbours who surround them.
In an alternate world where hearts are made of objects and suppressing emotions is self-care, a lonely woman rips out her own heart for the man she loves, only to discover that he has run away with it.
