The reality of addiction in a tough-minded docudrama set in the bleak milieu of hustlers and junkies in Montreal.

A man murders his dying lover. He drowns him in a tub of water. We drift through the man's mind in the hours after the death. He falls more and more deeply into layers of memory. La mémoire de l'eau is a tale of fear, love and grief set in a world of uncertain boundaries.

A man has a last telephone conversation with the lover who just left him. Call Waiting draws its inspiration from La voix humaine by Jean Cocteau.

"Rodrigue Jean gives voice to people who have nearly drowned. The story of their disaster and the lessons they have drawn from it make us think that life is born of water and flows somewhat like a river. We are born in a state something like a spring. This spring becomes a stream, we travel through forests, winding our way around obstacles to finally arrive at the river where our water merges with other water, like a new and clear consciousness. There is a proverb which states that great rivers are made up of small streams. In this way we all contribute to something that is greater than us and which carries us along to something even greater still." Herménégilde Chiasson
