From September 2012 to May 2013, France was debating the same-sex marriage. During these nine months of legislative gestation, the sociologist Irène Théry explains the stakes of the debate to her son, a film director. From these stories, a cinema of teddy bears, toys and pieces of cardboard emerges. Intimate portrait and national soap opera at the same time, this film makes us rediscover what we all thought we knew: family.
