Synopsis

Bagages lends a voice and a stage to a group of teenagers who have recently settled in Montreal and are attending Paul-Gérin-Lajoie-d’Outremont high school. The story of their migration and integration is told through drama workshops, theatrical production and interviews, during which they reveal themselves to the public. The « other place » of « before » will eventually turn into the « here » and « now ». Though they are young, they tell their stories with a disconcerting wisdom, an emotion that will touch even the hardest of hearts and a disarming authenticity.
