Le Prénom

Three decades have passed since the theft of the wampum, a sacred object and symbol of unity for the small community of Whitefish (Wapeyit-Nomehs). The village is being torn apart by a political crisis: two influential clans are engaged in a fierce power struggle.

Who would have thought that a little guy from Rue Duplessis in Drummondville, who grew up surrounded by poverty, fear and prejudice, would become a respected sociologist and a well-known Radio-Canada host?

They are father, sons, cousins, brothers-in-law; they are 23, 40, and 65 years old and have known each other forever. A small Egyptian-Québec clan has gathered in a cottage in the woods, with enough food to feed an army (you can never be too careful), and the group is about to celebrate Ralph’s birthday and enjoy the simple pleasures of the Laurentian forest. With the boys.
