Inspiré d'un fait divers remontant aux années cinquante, La gammick raconte l'histoire de François (Chico) Tremblay, Québécois moyen, qui se trouve confronté, après quelques années de bons et loyaux services au sein de la pègre montréalaise, avec la toute-puissante mafia américaine. La gammick, plus qu'un thriller, a une signification sociale et idéologique qui rend possible une lecture à plusieurs niveaux et permet l'analyse sociopolitique d'un phénomène urbain: le gangstérisme. Il existe au Québec comme partout ailleurs.

A TV news cameraman's appetite for fine wine, fast cars and beautiful women draws him into the grip of a heroin smuggler.

In this Canadian romance, Scott (David Selby) was so smitten by the looks of a pretty girl that he spends years looking for her. He keeps his searches a secret from his live-in lover, whom he stays with the entire while. When Scott actually meets the girl, he discovers that she has been similarly motivated, even though she is married and has had two children in the meantime. They share a romantic assignation and discover that the ideal figure they were each searching for is absent.
