About The Bottle
Two friends (Réal Bossé, François Papineau) reunite, as promised 15 years earlier, to look for a paper they sketched their goals on, now buried in the yard of an old grouch (Jean Lapointe).

Shops asked to halt mafia-themed Scotch whisky orders
Regulators have asked UK retailers to stop placing orders for a Sicilian Mafia -themed Scotch Whisky .
The Call by the Portman Group, which regulates the UK's alcohol sector, came after it found that over its " Cosa Nostra " product.
It said the packaging was likely to cause " serious and widespread offence".
The regulator added that its findings were in " the context of rising gun crime in the UK".
It found that The Product 's bottle, which is shaped like a Thompson submachine gun - commonly known as a Tommy gun - created " a direct link between the drink and a dangerous weapon".
In issuing a retailer alert bulletin, the Portman Group said: " The Panel considered that a Tommy gun was often used in depictions of historical Organised Crime syndicates, and while a Tommy gun was not a contemporary gun, the average consumer would recognise it as a firearm.
" Therefore, The Panel considered that The Shape of The Bottle created a clear link between the drink and a dangerous weapon which was wholly inappropriate for an Alcoholic Drink . "
Text on the packaging states " post proelia praemia" which translates as " after The Battle , comes the reward".
The Portman Group said The Product was found to have " a direct association with violent, aggressive, dangerous and illegal behaviour, and caused serious and widespread offence".
Nicola Williams , chairwoman of The Group 's independent complaints panel, said: " In light of rising gun crime in the UK, it is deeply irresponsible of an alcohol producer to glamorise firearms and market a product in this form.
" I hope Bartex Bartol takes note that such products are completely unacceptable. "
The finding comes after Italy's largest agricultural trade group, Coldiretti, condemned the Cosa Nostra product for associating itself with the Sicilian Mafia .
In 2014, Portman Group issued a retailer alert bulletin against Bartex Bartol for its product Red Army Vodka.
It concluded then that its packaging was " unacceptable for an Alcoholic Drink because they suggested an association with violent and dangerous behaviour".
Bartex Bartol, which did not respond to the complaint, has been approached for comment.
