MA VIE EN CINEMASCOPE
In Quebec's lower town area, five-year-old Alice Robitaille quickly makes a name for herself when singing after her father's wrestling matches. At the age of 13, she sets off alone for Montréal where she joins Jean Grimaldi's troupe of performers. Assuming the name of Alys Robi, the young woman has an affair with the actor Olivier Guimond and later with the musician Lucio Agostini. After becoming a leading international singer, Alys suffers from manic depression. Sick at heart, her father agrees to have her forcibly interned in a mental asylum. In Quebec in 1952, the singer, then aged 28 and about to undergo a lobotomy, looks back at the high points of her life and her career.
