En 1970, Gabor Szilasi, photographe québécois d’origine hongroise, prend la route de Charlevoix au Québec et photographie les derniers signes d’un monde rural en voie de disparition.
Trente-cinq ans plus tard, la cinéaste Catherine Martin (Océan, Dans les villes, Trois temps après la mort d’Anna) retourne dans cette région et s’attarde aux paysages, aux lieux et aux gens qu’il a photographiés. Le film retrace cet itinéraire photographique en prenant la mesure de ce qui reste et de ce qui a disparu.
