Summary

Montréal, 1936. Sans emploi, Léandre Sansoucy accepte à contrecœur de retourner travailler à l'épicerie familiale. En attendant la guérison de son frère Marcel, victime d'un accident, il achemine les commandes et, entre-temps, consent à l'union tant souhaitée par sa douce. Marcel, lui, est épris d'une ouvrière de la biscuiterie Viau, mais se heurte à une forte résistance des parents de la jeune femme. Sa sœur Simone, dont l'accouchement est imminent, s'attire les foudres de paroissiennes, qui ont le scandale facile. Irène mène toujours sa vie de vieille fille rangée, tandis qu'Édouard ne semble pas très heureux en mariage et que Placide est affligé d'une peine d'amour. Épuisée par le travail, Émilienne, la bonne mère de famille, sent le besoin de changer d'air. Son mari, croyant lui faire plaisir, considère une offre d'achat très alléchante pour son commerce. Le patriarche n'a pas consulté le clan avant d'entamer les démarches, mais tout le monde finit par s'en mêler. Le différend pourra-t-il se résoudre sans les conduire à l'irréparable?
