The year is 1967. The place, Montreal. Matt is an American student studying medecine at McGill, who meets and falls in love with an art student named Gabrielle. Matt is also a star hockey player, but he is expelled from school and no longer exempt from the draft. At this point in the story, Gabrielle has become pregnant, and Matt has to make the difficult decision of whether to stay or return home and enlist. Gabrielle encourages him to go, convinced he will return. But soon after he joins the army, she hears of his death in Viet Nam. It is only years later that this proves to have been a mistake.
