The Fall of Sparta

In our youth, it’s common to feel as though the odds are against us. This is true for 16-year-old Steeve Simard (played by Lévi Doré), who is about to begin his final year at Gaston-Miron High School in St-Lambert. As a skeptical intellectual with a critical perspective on both himself and the world around him, Steeve finds it difficult to connect with his family and classmates. His only companion is Virgil (portrayed by Jonathan St-Armand). To escape his solitude and fill the gaps in his imagination, Steeve immerses himself in literature and music. However, an encounter with the star player of the Spartans football team compels Steeve to break out of his isolation and confront his fate.
