 Ronald Parker is a successful advertising executive. Cindy Rella is a successful political consultant. They have been living together for eight years now and, today, while a general strike is building political and social chaos in Canada, Cindy doesn t want to laugh at Ronald s childish jokes anymore. She used to be with him because he always made her laugh, brought her to fancy restaurants and made her enjoy a tremendous social and high class life. He incarnated all she was looking for in a perfect man. But now, she understands, as a general strike brings to light the every day difficulties of every single citizens and workers, that the life she has been sharing with Ronny is completely meaningless. It s meaningless because it s disconnected from the reality a majority of people s everyday life. And Ronny makes THE mistake : right away, just to be funny, he makes fun of her. This is the line he should not have crossed. Ronny, dramatically self-centered and over self-indulgent, doesn t apologize and tries to reconquer his love by cooking a romantic dinner. Unfortunately, it s already too late. The hate will now only grow stronger and stronger until the inevitable happens. Chaos from outside turned love, supposedly indestructible, into a battlefield.
