Paris, early 1960s: Roland is the sixth child born into a Jewish family of Moroccan origin - with a severely malformed foot. The doctors declare that he will never be able to walk properly. His mother Esther refuses to accept this judgement, wrestles with God, medicine and the authorities and promises her son that he will go to school on his first day on his own two feet. Between a cramped flat, family chaos and the chansons of Sylvie Vartan, Roland grows up, discovers his dreams and feels his way into life step by step.
