Plot
In 1987, seventeen-year-old Ricardo (Jean-Carl Boucher) faces the usual teenage problems, such as having a crush on a classmate named Sarah despite already having a girlfriend named Marie-Josée and having a car. With his three friends, he goes to parties and gets drunk. When they fail to enter a bar after graduation, Ricardo wants to open one for underage teens. However, when he meets a bank manager for a loan, he discovers that he needs a job and be 18 years old to have a loan. Soon after, his dad finds him a job in the Italian restaurant he works at as a parking valet.
On his first night of work, when he was supposed to have sex with Marie-Josée and lose his virginity, Ricardo breaks a BMW, putting the damage and repairs on the restaurant's budget, and is immediately fired; an argument with his father causes the latter to start making wine illegally. One night, Ricardo and his friends find an expensive radio in a car and they steal it to gain money, and they become thieves. After being able to enter the bar, Ricardo gets unwillingly closer to Sarah.
On his prom day, Ricardo learns that Marie-Josée had an affair with a man in the bar Ricardo always tries to go to, and they break up; he also learns his project of bar got made in a nearby region, and one of his friends has been drafted in the QMJHL.
To get revenge on Marie-Josée, Ricardo has a date with Sarah, and it goes awry when Sarah announces her homosexuality. Ricardo finds Dallaire, one of his friends, with Marie-Josée. Waiting at Marie-Josée’s house, Ricardo gets drunk on his father's wine and is arrested by the police after the officer finds the stolen radios, and Ricardo tries to flee. Thinking Dallaire tricked Ricardo to get a date with Marie-Josée, Ricardo blames Dallaire for the stolen radios.
The next morning, an argument occurs with his parents over Ricardo's activities and his father's illegal business. The argument is interrupted when Ricardo's sister announces Marie-Josée has called. Ricardo then takes a bike and cycles three hours to Trois-Rivières, 136 kilometres (85 miles) to have sex with Marie-Josée.
It is later revealed that the relationship has ended after three years, and Ricardo never saw Dallaire again.
