The Dardenne brothers write and direct this Belgian drama about an eleven-year-old boy in search of a family. In an attempt to escape the state-run care home he has ended up in, rebellious pre-teen Cyril Catoul (Thomas Doret) tries without success to track down his deadbeat father. In the process, he meets small-town hairdresser Samantha (Cécile De France), who gradually manages to overcome Cyril's anger and reticence and ends up becoming a kind of surrogate mother to him.
