”You`ve got no chance, so use it”: this motto from Herbert Achternbusch can be applied to this film. In a mixture of comedy and melodrama, Marie Castille Mention-Schaar relates of year 11 in a school from Creteil whose course of life seems to predestine them to being losers. However, the committed teacher of history, Anne Gueguen, signs up the class for a competition in which the school pupils are to depict the fate of the Jewish children who were deported from France between 1942-1944. At first the youngsters are reluctant but later enthusiastic and seize the opportunity and learn what solidarity and empathy mean.
