Durant l'été 2003, un groupe de bergers à la tête d'un troupeau de moutons traverse les montagnes du Montana, à l'extrême Nord-Ouest des Etats-Unis. Sur 300 km de vallées verdoyantes et de plaines enneigées à perte de vue, les bergers acheminent tant bien que mal les centaines de moutons. Mais en cette paisible contrée rodent loups et ours.

The documentary shows the development of the contemporary business corporation, from a legal entity that originated as a government-chartered institution meant to affect specific public functions to the rise of the modern commercial institution entitled to most of the legal rights of a person. The documentary concentrates mostly upon North American corporations, especially those in the United States. One theme is its assessment of corporations as persons, as a result of an 1886 case in the United States Supreme Court in which a statement by Chief Justice Morrison R. Waite led to corporations as "persons" having the same rights as human beings, based on the Fourteenth Amendment to the United States Constitution.

In the 1930s, in the throes of the Great Depression, the government of Quebec relocated more than 80,000 citizens to found a new settlement in the virgin forests of Quebec’s Abitibi region. After enduring backbreaking work to clear the land, however, many left, seeking a better life in the city or as labourers for the large corporations that had come to exploit the North’s valuable resources. The Lalancette family, however, have persisted in forging their future on the land from one generation to the next, earning their keep from farming, and defying the constraints of globalization and the mining and forestry companies that control the area. Revisiting the heritage of Quebec filmmakers who documented Abitibi, following in the footsteps of Pierre Perrault, among others, this documentary traces a defining chapter of Quebec history and raises fundamental questions about regional development.

Sur les traces des grands documentaristes Henri Storck et Joris Ivens, Patric Jean met en parallèle deux époques (1933-1999) et déplore en cette fin de siècle une misère toujours présente…, pire, intolérable aujourd’hui. Sous forme de lettre-vidéo adressée à Henri Storck, sa caméra s’attarde dans les familles, dans les quartiers, auprès des responsables politiques locaux pour illustrer la transmission de la misère intellectuelle et de la pauvreté d'une génération à l'autre. Ce qui étonne, c'est le silence qui entoure les pauvres : à force d’être méprisés, ils se méprisent eux-mêmes. Ils souffrent, en silence, dans une violence de tous les jours.
