Three brothers in their fifties, played by François Pérusse, Guy Jodoin and Éric Bernier, will have to reconnect following the death of their father (Marcel Sabourin, touching), who died prematurely from an unfortunate "Ice Bucket Challenge". From the Montmorency Falls to the Niagara Falls, Guillaume Lambert takes us on an incredible journey in this "comic drama about falling, mourning and rebuilding oneself". After Les Scènes fortuites, a first attempt released in 2018, the multi-talented filmmaker offers the most anticipated Quebec comedy of the fall. Tinged with references to popular culture and a touch of kitsch and nostalgia, Niagara finds its charm through its characters, each one quirkier than the other.
