a film by Emmanuelle Lacombe
2020 - Québec - Drama
By day, Sasha works at her family’s flea market shop. By night, she makes YouTube videos in the hope of becoming the next big thing. During Quebec's National Day, a client films Sasha as she performs a duet with her grandmother, a fallen star in Quebec's music industry. Basking the glow of the former diva's aura, she sees her popularity skyrocket. To her, it’s a once in a lifetime opportunity.
