Eddie Constantine passed away in the spring of 1993. During his passage at the Festival international du Nouveau Cinéma et de la Vidéo de Montréal in 1986, Luc Bourdon meets and interviews him on the different eras of cinema that the actor experienced. With his singular voice, he relates his life as an actor, his successes, his meetings with Godard and Fassbinder, as well as some anecdotes on the art of "playing for the camera".
