THE ADOPTION 3. Wajdi 4. Inkeer (Monin/Zidrou) 2022-2023

Art avenges life

Gaëlle and Romain adopt Wajdi. He is ten years old and had a wounded childhood in Yemen. He experienced a lot of violence and deprivation. The enormous, impressive children's room only makes him more suspicious. Romain is a dentist and reads Tintin in his spare time. He even swears like Captain Haddock. The adjustment is not a success. Wajdi does not like being touched or hugged. He does not know how to deal with his aggression. Gaëlle even got a slap and can't take it anymore. Wajdi runs away. Just before that, he chose a reproduction of Francisco Goya, 'The Dog', from his period of 'Black Paintings', as a gift. Is it about a drowning dog fighting against the current? Or does the choice point to a desire for hope? Gaëlle starts an impressive search. The final shot with the hearts will stay with us for a long time. We have never been so happily moved.
