Jean-Marc is a disillusioned Quebec government social services employee in his forties. He escapes from his mundane everyday obligations by daydreaming of glory and beautiful women who are crazy about him. They are the opposites of the women in his reality. Life takes an unexpected turn when his wife Sylvie runs off to Toronto with the company president. Jean-Marc is forced to rethink his life, and find happiness elsewhere.
