When her son Guilhem is diagnosed with autism, Louison, a 38-year-old woman recently separated from her son’s father, discovers that she is also on the autism spectrum. While she suddenly understands why she has always felt different, her son only wishes to be like any of the other school kids. When a social investigation is opened to determine if she is able to keep custody of Guilhem, Louison decides to learn how to be “normal”. But neither she nor her family really knows what normal means.

Advised by an administration full of good intentions, Latefa and her two children Walid and Ptissam Frenchize their first names at the same time as they acquire French nationality. They face this unique ordeal with humor and lightness, just before the start of the school year.
