The story of a young man of nineteen who wants to move away from home and really begin to live his own life, but who lacks the courage to confront his parents with the idea. As so often happens, however, an act of fate intervenes to set the wheels in motion. The boy at last can confront his father as an adult, and under the sad eyes of his parents, make his long-contemplated departure. (Film in French, useful for teaching French as a Second Language.)
