Françoise is a talented designer. Her boss does not underestimate her talent and seeks to give her a chance, though is Françoise right to live outside of her home? Shouldn't she return to her husband and child?

Today it is the city of Montreal, but 3 centuries ago the tiny band of missionary founders called it Ville-Marie, the holy city of Mary. This film goes back to its beginning and those who felt called to plant an oasis of Christianity in the North American wilderness. In an imaginative, at times almost surrealistic, way the film recalls the highborn company from France, and shows what survives of Ville-Marie in the Montreal of today.

"I've often wondered what makes beauty" - So says Monique Miller who personifies in this short documentary universal woman, anxious to please since childhood, vulnerable, according to the hours, to the eyes of others, to torture from the wait, to the obsession of the wrinkles of tomorrow.
