A sweeping romance over several decades, Beating Hearts plays with the language of cinema, in a pulsating epic tale, that is both heady and intoxicating. Raised in a troublesome neighbourhood, local rebellious teenager Clotaire falls for his schoolmate Jackie, charmed by her fearless spirit and sharp wit. As powerful first love blossoms between the two, he is enticed into a much darker path one that threatens all they have built. After many years apart, now leading profoundly different lives, the star-crossed lovers discover that every path they’ve taken leads them back together. But will love triumph? A visually exhilarating romantic trip.
