In a residential care home in Geneva, a group of teenage girls have been placed under the care of their social workers. Forced to live together in a forced family setting, both tensions and intimacies are created between the young women. When an incident triggers a chain of over-reactions, a powerful, energetic and emotional examination of the impacts of abuse, coming-of-age, and the morals and ethics of social care results on screen.
This bristling and contemporary drama sees director Fred Baillif take inspiration from his past experiences as a street social worker, working with real residents and staff in a care home to play the fictional characters, with the ensemble cast composed of non-professional actors.
