Plot In 1991, Ricardo Trogi is 21 and studies cinema at Université du Québec à Montréal (UQAM) in Montréal. His friend and “the woman of his life”, Marie-Ève Bernard, invites him to go in Italy to study Italian in Perugia. Determined, Ricardo accepts without hesitation. After landing in Paris, Ricardo takes a train to Perugia, where he meets Arturo, a stowaway who earns his living by playing Like a Rolling Stone on guitar in the streets. On arrival, failing to find Marie-Ève, Ricardo accidentally loses his passport, money, and acceptance letter to the University of Perugia. Ricardo goes to the Canadian Embassy in Rome to get a new passport and emergency funds. In the meantime, he cannot check into any hotel without a passport. While spending the night at the train station, he meets Arturo again. Back in Perugia the next day, having already missed two days of school, Ricardo is assigned an apartment with Mamadou, from Burkina Faso. After partying all night, Ricardo wakes beside a Greek woman named Yorda. The next morning, Marie-Ève shows up and explains she is sharing an apartment with Raphi, a Spanish student, with whom she leaves on a field trip to Florence. Ricardo stumbles upon Arturo again and continues to see Yorda, even though he still has feelings for Marie-Ève. He is dismayed to catch her having sex with Raphi. Ricardo confronts Marie-Ève about how he feels. He explains that he only came for her and doesn't care about anything else in Italy, that no ordinary friends would do this. Marie-Ève rejects his feelings kindly, but Ricardo, tired, heartbroken, and disgusted, leaves without a word. Marie-Ève regrets their disappointment. The next morning, he decides to leave Perugia for good. Yorda catches him and says a heartfelt goodbye. Ricardo stumbles upon Arturo one last time on the train, even as he imagines Marie-Ève singing Like A Rolling Stone.
