Synopsis
When a kindergarten teacher (Philippe Torreton) living in a rural town in France finds that the coal mines--the main source of income--have been closed down, his community changes, becoming increasingly poverty-stricken and decrepit. One day when a drunk mother collapses in the school yard, then abandons her children, Daniel decides to take the kids into his own home. That is the beginning of a critical, reactionary stand he decides to take against the deterioration of his village.
