An October Crisis

Design by Michael Giacobbe

 

An October Crisis is a love story rooted in childhood, against the political backdrop of The October Crisis in Montreal, 1970. Charles and Jean-Francois are childhood friends but a misunderstanding leads to their split. Can they reconcile twenty years later, or has each changed too much to make redemption possible?
