Montreal, Winter 2002. Stéphane, 19 years old, fan of Metal, student in graphic design, dreams of becoming an illustrator. But for months he has been caught in a threatening spiral: he is addicted to games.

Will Stéphane make it through this new job or will he fall into a downward spiral of bad choices?
