Montreal, 1991. Delphis, 11 years old, grows up in a disadvantaged neighborhood and an unstable family environment. One evening, he decides to take control of his life and becomes The Hurricane. Armed with a lightning bolt on his headband and his middle finger held high, he flees a world that has no place for him. With the police and the Youth Protection Services on his trail, he leaves a mother in distress and has significant encounters in the street. Conquering himself, his adventure is like a road trip, from Hochelag' to Berri, from one family to another. Under the impetus of a hasty adolescence, his freedom thumbs his nose at the indifference towards the marginalized. Social etiquettes burst forth in an assertive tone and sustained rhythm. Between punk music and Marjo, The Hurricane hits us in the face, without waiting to die!

Explores how the quest for an elusive monster transforms those who seek it. Through the stories of hunters, scientists, and believers, the film blurs the boundary between legend and reality, suggesting that Bigfoot might be as much a reflection of human nature as a creature of the wild.

Ultimately, the film is less about finding Bigfoot and more about how the search shapes us, igniting a deeper understanding of ourselves and our place in the natural world.

Finding the courage to leave the fold is only the beginning for most of these young people. Those who have decided to take this step become pariahs, often completely cut off from the emotional and financial support of their families.

Many only speak Yiddish— or some Hebrew that is stilted and archaic because it is restricted to use only for prayer.
