A girl in desperate need of guidance looks for it in all the wrong places in this streetwise drama from Canada. Jude (Liane Balaban) is a bright but troubled teenager growing up in a dysfunctional home in Montreal. Jude became involved with a drug dealer and, in an ill-advised moment, decided to make off with his bankroll. Now she's looking for refuge on the streets, seeking advice from a motley collection of friends living along the city's margins: the huge but good hearted Big Al; Georgie, a hustler whose ambitions overwhelm his tiny body; Clarence (Raymond Cloutier), a kind man with a disturbing sexual attraction to children; and Gabriel, a fellow teenager battling a serious infection she got from a bad tattoo. Nicholas Campbell appears in a supporting role as Jude's father; Campbell and Liane Balaban also played father and daughter in the earlier film New Waterford Girl. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide
