Louisiana, 2013. French language is rapidly disappearing. Filmmakers Christian Fleury and David Simard investigate what seams to be the inevitable death of a language. ‘’Everybody Wants to be a Cajun’’ follows ‘’Let the French Fly’’, filmed in Maine, 2012. This time, they present two experts, each with their own perspective on the state of french language and culture. One expert works towards a unified francophone community while the other represents the large majority of french descendants now Americanized. The two opposing views reveal social and political differences that have divided the community in the past and still does today. Parallel to this dialogue, members of the francophone community offer little moments of poetry through their rich stories and dialect.
