Aline

In Quebec, Anglomard and Sylvette Dieu raise 13 children in a working-class home. The Dieu household is defined by a shared love of performing music, which plants the seed for Aline’s future career. Aline becomes the 14th child, joining a family already steeped in song.

The family’s musical spirit influences young Aline as she sings ‘Mamy Blue’ at a family wedding for the first time. She tells her mother that she wants to be a professional singer, a dream that will set the course for her life. The family’s support helps nurture her early aspirations.

Sylvette, with the help of her eldest son, composes Aline’s first song and records a demo. The tape is sent to Guy-Claude Kamar, a record manager admired by the family. For two weeks they wait to hear back, hoping for a breakthrough.

Guy-Claude finally listens to the demo and is astonished by Aline’s voice. He becomes determined to help make her one of the world’s biggest artists. The potential collaboration promises a rapid ascent for the young singer.

Aline releases her first albums and quickly finds success in both her home province and in France. Her distinctive voice and heartfelt songs win audiences and industry attention. The beginnings of international stardom start to take shape as she gains momentum.

As she grows into a young adult, Aline takes a long break to mature her image before returning to touring. During this period, she develops romantic feelings for Guy-Claude. Their evolving relationship becomes a central thread in her personal and professional life.

Sylvette discovers the romance and openly confronts the manager, threatening to fire him if he pursues Aline. Guy-Claude is caught off guard, unaware of the full dynamics at home. The family’s harmony is tested by this revelation.

Aline wins a European song contest in Dublin, which cements her rising status. Following the victory, she finally expresses her feelings for Guy-Claude and they begin a private relationship. The win marks a turning point in both her career and personal life.

On a talk show, Aline performs a hit and is pressed about who the song is about. She tears up and chooses not to reveal the subject, keeping the intimate inspiration to herself. The moment underscores the blend of public fame and private emotion in her career.

While touring in Italy, Guy-Claude proposes to Aline and they plan a wedding with the Dieu family by their side. The couple’s union becomes a symbol of their joint ascent in the music world. The marriage bows to both professionals and family ties.

The couple tries for a baby through IVF, adding a new layer of personal challenge to their already demanding careers. The journey reflects their longing for a traditional family life amid global fame. Each attempt tests their relationship and resilience.

During a performance of All by Myself, Aline injures her voice and is unable to sing or speak for about three months. The forced silence interrupts her career and requires her to focus on recovery and self-preservation. The setback deepens her reliance on others and reshapes her path forward.

Aline receives a demo of 'My Heart Will Go On' and, though not initially amused, decides to record it after Guy-Claude convinces her. The song becomes a key addition to her repertoire and further cements her international appeal. The collaboration shows the strength of their partnership.

Aline meets Fred, a French stylist who becomes a trusted collaborator. After a successful movie awards show performance, she hires him to work with her on future appearances. The partnership helps refine her image and presentation on stage and screen.
