Plot Summary

Juliette, 15 ans, est la fille unique d'un éminent juge de la Cour Supérieure du Québec. Élevée dans un milieu bourgeois, elle a bénéficié d'une éducation sans failles dans les meilleures écoles. Son père se retrouve au centre de l'attention médiatique lorsqu'il est invité à présider un des procès les plus importants des dix dernières années : celui de Réal Lamontagne, criminel notoire, redouté et redoutable. Roméo, 17 ans, a lui aussi une famille célèbre : il est le fils de Réal Lamontagne. Son père est accusé d'avoir commis des crimes d'une monstruosité indescriptible: il est incriminé pour avoir causé la mort d'un enfant. Cependant, le magnétisme que dégage Roméo n'est pas passé inaperçu de Juliette. Malgré le fait qu'ils viennent de mondes diamétralement opposés, les deux jeunes gens s'éprennent l'un de l'autre. Les nombreux obstacles les empêcheront-ils de vivre leur amour et de rester unis en liberté? Roméo et Juliette est une grande histoire d'amour. Les pôles opposés de l'amour et de la haine se retrouvent dans un contexte de rivalité et d'incompatibilité sociale.

Trivia (Comments of the director concerning the shooting of his film and his meeting with Jeanne Moreau): "There had been talk of a French co-producer, the film was still produced here in Quebec, and they said to me: "Who would you like to make this film with to play the role of Juliette's grandmother", and well I said with Jeanne Moreau, saying to myself that it was not possible. They told me: "There is no problem, we will join her, we will ask her", and they call me after 2-3 days and tell me: "She is waiting for you at the hotel in Paris for lunch". Well, I said to myself, it can't be, Jeanne is like Elizabeth Taylor, she is one of the great movie stars. And the year before, she had been honored at the Oscars for her whole career, and then I was watching her on television, and I said to myself: "I'm not going to meet Jeanne Moreau, it can't be, she played for François Truffaut and all that. I arrive in Paris (in France), and they celebrate the 100 years of the French cinema, and the effigy is Jeanne Moreau, huge posters everywhere in the city, and there I say to myself: "It is incredible". And in the restaurant located in the 17th, where I have my meeting with her, she is with her back to the window, I have Jeanne in front of me, and behind her, it is a huge poster of her smoking a cigarette in the movie 'Jules et Jim' (1962). Then she talks to me, she had read the script, then it was very simple. And she says to me: "Excuse me, we have to interrupt our meeting because there is Almodóvar waiting for me at the bar. Come, I'll introduce you to him". Afterwards, she added in passing: "Hey, say hello to my friend"...it was Claude Lelouch!...It was incredible. But apart from the anecdote and the fan that I was, she is a woman who has an exceptional job. She is someone who has contributed enormously to cinema. And when I would say to her in the morning: "Ok, I'm going to do such and such a shot Jeanne" (because you had to be on first-name terms with her, you couldn't be polite to her. She had this charm), then she would come to me and she would say, pointing to a place, "You should put your camera there, if you want to get this thing there". So I said, "Look, we're going to make a deal. I'm going to do my shot the way I think it should be done, and then I'm going to do the shot that you want. And 100 percent of the time she was right, she was right about everything. It was a very beautiful moment in my life that made me progress in my work".
