A mid-winter romantic feature filmed in Montréal, although the story could take place in any city where those young people live who have left their parents' homes but still have not made homes of their own. Ernie's alienation is far more extreme than most. For him life is a game, not because he chooses to make it so, but because he is unable to make anything more of it. But for those who befriend him and eventually turn him loose again, his game is not enough.
