In 1963, the Faubourg district in M'lasse was destroyed for the construction of the Radio-Canada tower. A photographer was then hired to immortalize the neighborhood. Halfway between documentary and fiction, Au pied du mur takes up this premise and updates it. The film follows a city employee entering the privacy of the people of a Montreal neighborhood in order to capture one last time what will soon have to be destroyed.
