César award-winner Josiane Balasko plays the impassioned, pioneering defender of the "cause of children", Françoise Dolto.
Using language in all its forms (games, drawings, dreams, etc), her unwavering belief in children's natural intelligence, Dolto enabled troubled children to confront their demons.
In this amazing fiction, Dolto brings together two boys who experience an incredible adventure before following their own paths. The story of Claude, 10, whose parents fought in the Resistance and his mother died in Auschwitz, and Ben, 14, the son of a prostitute and smalltime gangster, illustrate Dolto's passion for life, love and healing.
