Emmanuel Descombes invites us to meet Jean, Vincent, Arsène, Adrien, Julien, Leo, among the 80 boys forming the choir of “The little singers of Paris”, and discover their boarder’s life at the castle of Glaignes, in the French province of Oise. Aged from 8 to 15, these boys live the life of all the children of their age, but they also have the extraordinary possibility to make round-the-world tours (little John’s dream!). Leo is crying. Twice he has failed the two evaluations that enable Véronique Thomassin, the choir’s chief, to select the thirty children who will go on the tours, He will have to work more to join his fellow singers in a tour of France or abroad. School work, musical training, discovery of life outside the family cocoon and the castle, supervision of the newcomers by the more experienced boys during the tours : this music school is a great life experience. Even if these boys wear a uniform, as well as an alb during the concerts, they rem ain themselves and bear these impositions as part of their role and even an advantage with girls! Neither uptight nor naïve, they show maturity and moral strength in the sustained effort they have to make to deserve to sing on stage. It does not prevent them from running wild in the dormitory or the showers... By filming the voices and faces of these boys with great sensitivity, Emmanuel Descombes rejuvenates the old institution and will probably elicit new vocations of choir singers.
