“Heartbeats” centers on close friends Francis (Xavier Dolan) and Marie (Monia Chokri). At lunch one day, the pair meet Nicolas, a suave, playful and irresistibly hot new arrival in Montreal who quickly emerges as the object of their desire. As Marie and Francis’ obsessions for Nicolas' grow, their once solid friendship comes unhinged as they compete for his attention.
A native of Montreal, Dolan directed his first film, I Killed My Mother, at age 20. That movie won three awards at the 2009 Cannes Festival. Les Amours Imaginaires, his second feature film, was also a hit at the Cannes Film Festival in 2010, winning the Youth Prize.
This screening is organized in collaboration with the Quebec Government Office in Washington DC.

Testimonials
This tour delivers the goods. Being raised just outside of washington d.c. (Bethesda), I've gone on innumerable DC sightseeing tours in my lifetime. Every time a family friend or relative visited from out of town meant another trip down to the Mall, another sightseeing tour. Monument tours, ghost tours, "Duck" tours, you name it I've done it. But out of all the DC tours I've been on this was one of the best. I went last weekend with my nieces and nephews on the Capitol Hill tour, which lasted a little over two hours. The tour guide was extremely knowledgeable of the historic sites and presented the information in a fun and lively manner. His enthusiam for the subject was infectious. He had my nieces and nephews in rapt atttention from start to finish. Highly recommend.
