Synopsis

In 1954, young Ornella Perrugi arrives for her first teaching post in a remote French village, full of passion for education. She soon finds herself at odds with the harsh realities of rural life, where farmers value their children's labor over their schooling. After defending a child in need, she's transferred, leading to a new school and a meeting with a fellow teacher, Pierre. Together, they build a life dedicated to their shared calling, navigating decades of change in the French education system.
