[edit] Plot
The series tells the true story of Michel Chartrand and Simonne Monet, perhaps the most influential couple in the history of Quebec. We see the life of the two militants who fought for justice and later on, their children who grow up. In all, it revives their social upheavals which gave tremendous significance to the history of Quebec during three decades.
