En 1999, Paul et sa conjointe Julie vivent de beaux moments avec leur jeune fille. Ils se cherchent une maison à Montréal et voient fréquemment leur famille, notamment les parents de Julie qui habitent St-Nicolas, en banlieue de Québec. Mais la maladie a frappé durement Roland, le fier et généreux patriarche de la famille, qui tente tant bien que mal de cacher l'ultimatum qu'il subit à ses enfants. Mais la vie étant ce quelle est, Roland devra être admis dans un centre de soins palliatifs alors que ses proches, dont Paul, devront apprivoiser l'idée de sa mort. Dans le processus, Paul se mettra au dessin.

Paul is a cartoonist who lives with his girlfriend and their little daughter in Montreal in the summer of 1999. His in-laws, the Beaulieus, are a large, joyful clan composed of siblings, grandchildren and a much loved patriarch named Roland who constantly reminds Paul that he has yet to marry his daughter. When Roland fades with ill health, the family bands together and Paul projects his own devotion by doodling several portraits of his ailing father-in-law.

Based on the award winning comic strip, Paul à Québec is a touching story of a family coping with adversity but the courage and tenderness that they bring to one another is an inspiring ode to the beauty of life and the power of familial bonds.
