Brown is a young gangster who sneaks and robs on the street all day long and has no fixed place to live. Sonia is a young girl who lives alone on social assistance. Although her body is mature enough to have a child, her mind is not open enough to bear the burden. Everything about being a parent.

Young Sonia, who was born less than eight days later, was forced to accept that her home was rented out by her boyfriend Brown to a friend, stood in the phone booth and called around to inquire about Brown's whereabouts, and walked on the street to find every possible location of Brown's haunt. . Carrying the child in the dike cave where Brown lives, sharing the joy of being a new mother with him, the innocent girl faces the indiscreet boy.

He rented a fancy sports car with the money he got from looting and selling stolen goods on the road. It cost him 200 euros, but he had no money to rent a room for the family of three, so he had to knock on the door of the shelter. He bought a handsome coat for Sonia with a lot of money, but he had no money for mother and son to enjoy a meal.

The turning point of the whole play is that Brown is greedy and sells the child to the human group behind Sonia's back. What he thought was as simple as going to the street and riding a motorcycle to rescue him in need of money. The same is true of children. They are born again. They can whitewash peace with excuses for losing children, but he ignores that Sonia and hedonism He is different. Sonia, who passed out and was sent to the hospital, revealed to the police that Brown was selling children. He hurriedly called the syndicate that bought the baby. When the child came back, he was saddled with a sum that was more than the amount he originally sold the child. Double the amount. Facing the police's questioning, he was forced to come to the door of his mother's house. At this time, he could not help but realize that he had a home, parents, and when facing close relatives, he did not change his nature of lying. Brown's indifference, there is a dark shadow of Brown on a door closed in the middle of the night.

In the face of Brown's ruthless sales of flesh and blood, Sonia broke with him, and the only cash on her body was also robbed by the population group. The young man was ready to rob on the main road, but failed in the end.

A dull beginning, a calm process, and an inevitable ending. My liking is entirely based on the perspective of "L'enfant", not sensational, not deliberately contrived pictures, rich plot.

The most fascinating stories are always the nuances of real life, but the most memorable are often the tragedies of life that leave traces of struggle, and the same goes for comedies.

    There isn't much artistic value to see in the minimalist documentary style of the Darney brothers.
