No (1998) ***

A modest little comedy about the October crisis in 1970. The plot revolves around a young actress from Montreal appearing in a sex farce being staged during Expo 70 in Osaka. Meanwhile, back in Quebec, her boyfriend finds himself consorting with a bunch of FLQ terrorists who use his appartment to test their newest bomb. Randomly mixing comic and tragic events, it's a tentative, often subtle, and occassionally awkward exploration of Quebec's identity problem.
