About Coeur de nylon
A bum named Richard (Yves Desgagnés) is like many others, apart he always carries a red suitcase with him everywhere he goes, from which a curled wire is attached to his chest. This is very intriguing to young runaway Christian (Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge), who finds refuge at Christian's place.
Directed by Michel Poulette, Coeur de nylon leans on a strong ensemble — Yves Desgagnés, Guillaume Lemay-Thivierge, Macha Grenon — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1988.
