Famille d'accueil, comment aimer l'enfant accueilli, mais pas trop...
On suit le quotidien d'une famille avec deux enfants, qui accueille également un petit garçon placé par la DAS depuis 5ans. Film extrêmement touchant, porté par une Mélanie Thierry impériale dans son rôle d'éducatrice / mère. Et le petit garçon joue tellemeeeeent bien, impressionnant. La situation est difficile, grise, il n'y a pas de solution facile. On comprend vraiment tous les protagonistes et leurs motivations (juge / père / famille d'accueil) ce qui est fort. Un bon film français.
Bon film
France 3 Beau film sur famille d accueil … poignant
