Film Description:
"Benoît is an astonishingly accomplished eleven-year-old Québécois from Joliette. He pursues such diverse activities as weight lifting and playing the violin. Member of the Orchestre symphonique des jeunes de Joliette, he still finds time to indulge in a busy social life with peers and elders alike. This film moves at Benoît's pace, which is mostly a fast one."
