Synopsis by Daniel Gelb
A group of concerned adults, including a juvenile-court judge (Catherine Deneuve) and a youth counselor (Benoît Magimel), try to help a deeply troubled teen (Rod Paradot) come to grips with his traumatic past and the demands of his future as he navigates the correctional system and the pain of adolescence. Emmanuelle Bercot directed this drama, which opened the 2015 Cannes Film Festival.
