Synopsis Violette, a 26-year-old woman with Down’s syndrome, has just moved into a home for mentally disabled adults, and is looking forward to her new life there: living with friends, dressing as she likes… freedom!

The girl who so dreams of living “like a grown-up” is going to have to face up to the limits imposed by her disability… Or is it our society?
