Set in the late 1940s, a professor of music (Gerard Jugnot) is appointed to the position of Supervisor at a "boarding school for difficult children." He finds himself at odds with the director who believes that rehabilitation can only be achieved through the action-reaction approach and harsh, often abusive discipline. The new supervisor believes that he can make a difference in their lives by introducing them to music and begins writing pieces for the boys to perform. Also with Francois Berleand, Jean-Baptiste Maunier, Jean-Paul Bonnaire and Jacques Perrin. Directed by Christophe Barratier. In French with English subtitles . . .
