Summary:

"From 1960's Paris to present-day Montreal comes an epic love story. It is somber, troubling and luminous all at once and yet filled with hope. Colored with hues of fantasy and bathed in a surrealistic light, Café de Flore tells the story of the intertwining destinies of Jacqueline, a young Parisian mother of a special child, Antoine, a Montreal DJ, and the women in his life. What binds them all is love: troubling, clumsy, imperfect, unattainable...and ultimately, human."--Container.

"Entre le Paris des années 1960 et le Montréal d'aujourd'hui se déploie une vaste histoire d'amour aux accents épiques, à la fois sombre et lumineuse, troublante et malgré tout pleine d'espoir. Film teinté de fantastique, baigné d'une lumière parfois presque surnaturelle, Café de Flore raconte les destins croisés de Jacqueline une jeune Parisienne, mère d'un enfant unique, d'Antoine un DJ montréalais, ainsi que des femmes qui l'entourent. Ce qui les relie : l'amour, troublant, maladroit, imparfait et inachevé...humain."--Conteneur.
