Simon is a young orphan being raised by his uncle Tom. As his grandfather lay dying, Simon discovers how racist and backwards his uncle is. Simon's grandfather hated Simon's father and claims that he intentionally killed Simon's mother in a car crash. Simon's family narrative is cleverly knit into a news story presented to Simon by his high school French teacher as a translation exercise. The article is read by the teacher about an attempted bombing of an aircraft by a man who put explosives in his pregnant wife's luggage. Simon gets the idea to translate the story and write it from the perspective of the child in the woman's womb. The teacher encourages Simon to develop his story, present it to the class and to the world via the Internet as if he really was that child. The narrative of the car crash and the attempted bombing of the plane become intertwined as a way for the characters to deal with their past experiences. Simon's story takes a twist that involves everyone in his life.… (plus d'informations)

Simon, a Toronto high school student, has been raised by his maternal Uncle Tom since Simon’s parents, Rachel and Sami, died in a car accident eight years ago. Tom, a tow truck driver, decided to move to the city into Rachel’s house and assume the mortgage, something he could ill afford, largely not to disrupt Simon’s life, but equally to get away from his and Rachel’s father, Morris, an openly bigoted man.

One day at school, Simon’s French teacher Sabine reads a French newspaper story from several years ago as a translation exercise for the class, the story about a pregnant woman traveling to Israel, her then boyfriend who, unknown to her, planted a bomb in… (fonte: imdb)

Sabine (ARSINÉE KHANJIAN), uma professora dá na sua aula um exercício baseado numa história real. Uma notícia sobre um terrorista que coloca na bagagem de avisão da sua namorada grávida uma bomba.

A traição de confiança presente nesta história leva o seu aluno Simon (DEVON BOSTICK) a criar a sua própria história que lhe contaram sobre a morte do seu pai – uma história que rapidamente circula na internet fora do seu controlo.

Criando um elaborado trama, Egoyan investiga a natureza da família e da comunicação moderna, da verdade e da imaginação, enquanto Simon descobre o que realmente aconteceu no passado.
