When the Bishop Bilodeau arrives one morning at a Canadian prison to hear the last confession of a childhood friend, he instead finds himself compelled to confront a past revived as the prison inmates perform a haunting and tragic story of passion and obsession among three boys at a small Christian school in 1912. Lust and love collide when two men confront their own conflicting memories in a final effort to reclaim lost lives and achieve redemption and revenge.

Michel Marc Bouchard's landmark play Lilies was the inspiration for the 1996 film of the same title, shortly thereafter achieving cult status for its beautiful imagery, complex love story, and unwavering commitment to portraying the tragic consequences of homophobia and social injustice. The film was nominated for 14 Genie Awards - the Canadian Oscars - winning 4. Lilies was also honored with a GLADD Media Award, an LA Outfest Award, a Montreal World Film Festival Award, and a San Francisco International Gay & Lesbian Film Festival Award.
