Rafales est un film québécois réalisé par André Mélançon, sorti en 1990.

Synopsis

La veille de Noël, une tempête de neige fait rage. Dans le stationnement d'un centre d'achat, une automobile se gare silencieusement. À son bord, trois hommes armés et nerveux s'apprêtent à commettre un hold-up dans un magasin d'électronique. Au bout de quelques tergiversations, Normand et son frère cadet Gérard se décident enfin. Mais, alors que les deux hommes prennent la fuite après avoir vidé les coffres du magasin, le coup tourne mal et Gérard tue accidentellement un père Noël qui passait par là. La police intercepte Normand, tandis que Gérard, s'enfuit avec l'argent. Louis-Philippe Trépanier, l'animateur des Montréalités à la radio CKBG, le suit dans la tempête. Trépanier, chroniqueur ambitieux et sans scrupules, voit alors en Gérard une bonne occasion de redorer son blason auprès de Pierre Champagne, son patron. Voilà peut-être l'occasion rêvée de frapper un grand coup médiatique et enfin obtenir la reconnaissance qu'il recherche depuis si longtemps.

Continuing seventeen years after Arcand's The Decline of the American Empire, the film centres on an exploration of the characters first met in the original film and their children, newly introduced. The older generation are still largely social-democrats and proponents of Quebec nationalism, but both political and economic developments after the “Quiet Revolution” of the 1960s, as well as their own aging, make their left-wing stance seem somewhat anachronistic.
