Jimmy is trapped in a spiral of street drug addiction and withdrawal. He’s a wounded creature, chasing after his delusions with a vengeance.

Jimmy is trapped in a spiral of street drug addiction and withdrawal. He’s a wounded creature, chasing after his delusions with a vengeance.


One day, Jimmy is forced to get back in contact with his family. The pariah’s return to the pack reawakens old demons in his elder brother Nathan.

The two brothers’ fates begin to intertwine, steered by lack of affection, brotherly rivalry and wasted lives. The emotional powder keg explodes in a brutal confrontation that projects them through the looking glass. A journey that will leave no one unscathed.


Carried by elaborate visual compositions, precise framing and unusual shots of Montreal, CA$H NEXU$ is an audacious exercise in style, that confirms the filmmaker's great formal mastery. (filmsquebec.com)


Starring Alexandre Castonguay as Jimmy, François Papineau as Nathan, Evelyne Brochu as Juliette, Guy Thauvette as Emmanuel, Christiane Pasquier as Ève, and Lara Kramer as Angie.
