Françoise Durocher, waitress

Court métrage de fiction qui projette dans toutes ses nuances la condition de waitress. Être fictif à qui 24 femmes prêtent leur visage, Françoise Durocher possède à la fois les traits de la petite serveuse, de l'hôtesse et de la barmaid. Ensemble, elles donnent, selon l'auteur, une idée de la fille de table québécoise qui, tous les jours, vous sert avec le sourire malgré les ennuis inhérents à son métier et les petits drames à peu près quotidiens qu’elle affronte. Ce film est la première expérience cinématographique du tandem Brassard-Tremblay.
