Synopsis
Elana, Mathis, Camille, and Ulysses are part of a special needs class in a primary school. They are between seven and twelve years old and suffer from diverse intellectual difficulties. For them, all learning is a sometimes painful battle between themselves and others, and on a personal level.
Mais en dehors de la classe, parfois, leur corps d’enfant se laisse aller. Sur un trapèze de cirque ou relâchés sur la croupe d’un cheval, ils s’abandonnent. But outside class, they let themselves go like the children they are. On a circus trapeze or relaxed on a horse's croup, they lose themselves.
