A woman leaves her child on the RER platform with a stranger, then disappears. In 5 seconds – the time it takes for the doors to close – everything tips over. The one who takes the floor is that stranger. A young man still living at his mother's home. Over the course of one night wandering with the child, he tries to put words to what has happened. He speaks at the child's eye level, like a brother, against the clamor of judgments. This moment will bring about a revolution for him. For, in the encounter of these little Thumbelinas, something unexpected emerges: an infinite tenderness. The show addresses the myth of the "bad mother," the masculine injunctions inherited from the father, and our ways of loving and of connecting with one another.
