Le golem de Montréal

Seven-year-old Nico’s mother has walked out on his family, leaving him alone with his alcoholic father. The boy is thankful for his friendship with Camille and Axelle, two young neighbors. After hearing the story of the Jewish legend of the Golem, a clay giant to whom a rabbi has given life, the three children use a magic formula to create their own giant. This "Golem" obeys every order he’s given. Nico quickly makes friends with him and the giant helps the boy win a toboggan race against his rival, Renaud. For revenge, Renaud kidnaps the giant. Nico and his friends search for the Golem, who has escaped to the city.
