On a day in early summer, two young men play squash, a lifeguard watches an indoor pool, a young woman shelves books at a store, another stages a puppet show for children in a park, an older woman cooks, and Manon gets on her bicycle to ride to a rendezvous with her boyfriend. She turns a corner. Something happens. As she lies on the asphalt, a crowd gathers around her and an ambulance arrives; we hear her voice, first confused as to what has happened, then telling us how her friends and her mother will receive word, and how her friends will gather to talk. As images move back and forth in time, she remembers recent events and expresses some small regrets.

A blend of drama and documentary, this film follows several people caught up in the turmoil of the modern world. The drama centres on a woman who has burned out and who holds up her own despair – and her attempts to rebuild her life – as a mirror to the rest of us. With a blend of gravity and humour, Sylvie Groulx's film shows the absurdity of a society dedicated to the cult of speed at all costs.

Cornemuse est une vétérinaire canine qui soigne des petits animaux. Elle prend soin de quatre petits « enfants-animaux » âgés de quatre ans, issus de quatre familles d'espèces différentes. Ce sont Tibor le tigre, Kounga la kangourou, Rafi la petite ratonne et Bagou le singe. Ils vivent dans des familles biparentales, recomposées ou monoparentales qui ressemblent fort à celles des jeunes téléspectateurs d'aujourd'hui. Leurs besoins, leurs rêves, leurs joies ainsi que les défis qui s'offrent à eux ressemblent à ceux des enfants « à la maison » qui, par le fait même, s'identifient à leurs petits héros. C'est dans un univers allégorique de la réalité quotidienne avec ses dramatiques, ses clips et ses capsules, ses contes, ses comptines et ses chansons que Cornemuse propose aux jeunes téléspectateurs un voyage unique au cœur du merveilleux et une source d'apprentissage inépuisable.
