On the verge of retiring as a paediatrician, and department head in a hospital, 65-year-old Naïm receives an emergency visit from four-year-old Adam, fed exclusively on seeds and fruit by his mother. For the medical interest of this child, Naïm is led, in consultation with the judge, to separate him from his mother whilst his only other family tie is a father fleeing his parental responsibilities. Overcome with doubt and guilt,Naïm decides, without consulting the judge, to allow Adam’s mother to visit her son. Far from realizing that her goal was to run away with him, Naïm faces the consequences of his decision. Haunted by the responsibility of this kidnapping, Naïm will do everything to ensure the child’s survival.
