Louis Jobin (Martin Drainville) is an utterly ordinary young man from Montreal who sells televisions at an electronics store. He wins a contest sponsored by the local cable company in which the first prize is that he'll be followed non-stop by a camera crew, with the footage broadcast live on Channel 19. Unfortunately, his ordinary life is so ordinary, despite the best efforts of his starstruck mother (Dominique Michel), that the producers attempt to spice things up behind his back.

12/31/2014 L'idée était bonne. Mais le scénario est mince, les dialogues aussi.... Et le jeu de Martin Drainville (et d'à peu près tout le monde) est difficile à regarder... Le genre de chose qui vieillit plutôt mal. See more 08/18/2008 Canadian French film, about a man who is filmed 24x7 in Montreal, in order to boost local cable ratings. A fresh original concept; I could not turn away from it, despite the bad dubbing job. See more 06/08/2008 Drôle, cave, divertissant. mais pas plus qu'un visionnement, svp.... See more 10/30/2007 Une des meilleures comédies québécoise, et que dire de la scène du frigidaire .... See more 10/12/2007 L'idee etait bonne, mais j'ai ete un peu decue... peut-etre avais-je trop d'attentes ;-) See more 09/22/2007 Un de mes premiers contacts avec le cinéma québécois.
