Heartbeats

Friday, February 25 - Thursday, March 17, 2011

Francis (writer-director Dolan) and Marie (Monia Chokri) are the best of friends, but when they meet Nicolas (Niels Schneider), a stunning new arrival in Montreal’s hipster scene, they’re both smitten. And as one inconclusive encounter leads troublingly to another — whether real or imagined, the signs are all bad — each of them slides deeper into obsessive fantasy. And the deeper they slide, the more their once cast-iron friendship begins to crack under the pressure of competition.
