They dive into the worlds of music, theater, cinema, dance, and visual arts, pushing the boundaries of artistic expression, and choose to redefine Acadian heritage through their more contemporary vision. The film captures the creative process of these young talents, driven by a genuine passion for their culture, as they explore their Acadian identity.
