SYNOPSIS:
For 20 years, Bruno and Malik have run two separate non-profit organizations that train young people from underprivileged neighborhoods to be caregivers for children and adolescents with extreme autism. Now, without official certification for Brunoas organization, their future is suddenly unclear. Laced with grace and humor the film uses a lively shooting style that is always moving. The film underscores a host of current social issues in the French social welfare system, while exploring the working friendship between an orthodox Jew and a Muslim. From the directors of aThe Intouchables”, difficult issues are addressed in this endearing and uplifting film.
