== Plot ==
In 1991, Ricardo Trogi is 21 and studies cinema at [[Université du Québec à Montréal|UQAM]] in Montréal. His friend and “the woman of his life”, Marie-Ève Bernard, invites him to go in [[Italy]] to study [[Italian language|Italian]] in [[Perugia]]. Determined, Ricardo accepts without hesitation.
 
After landing in [[Paris]], Ricardo rides a train to Perugia, where he meets Arturo, a [[stowaway]] who earns his living by playing ''[[Like a Rolling Stone]]'' on guitar in the streets. On arrival, failing to find Marie-Ève, Ricardo accidentally loses his passport, money and letter of acceptance to the [[University of Perugia]]. Ricardo goes to the Canadian Embassy in [[Rome]] to get a new passport and emergency funds. In the meantime, he is unable to check into any hotel without a passport. While spending the night at the train station, he meets Arturo a second time.
 
Back in Perugia the next day, and having already missed two days of school, Ricardo is assigned an apartment with Mamadou, who is from [[Burkina Faso]]. After partying all night, Ricardo wakes up besides a [[Greeks|Greek]] woman named Yorda. The next morning, Marie-Ève shows up, and explains she is sharing an apartment with Raphi, a Spanish student, with whom she leaves on a field trip to [[Florence]]. Ricardo stumbles upon Arturo once again and continues to see Yorda even though he still has feelings for Marie-Ève, only to catch her having sex with Raphi.
 
Ricardo confronts Marie-Ève about how he feels. He explains he only came for her and he doesn't care about anything else in Italy, that no ordinary friends would do this. Marie-Ève rejects his feelings kindly but Ricardo, tired, heart-broken and disgusted leaves without a word, leaving Marie-Ève feeling bad. The next morning, he decides to leave Perugia for good, but Yorda catches him and says a heartfelt goodbye, during which it is revealed her name was actually Georgia. On the train, Ricardo stumbles upon Arturo one last time while imagining Marie-Ève singing ''Like A Rolling Stone''.
