In Aubervilliers, Jacques-Prévert primary school faces a new competitor: a brand-new school promoting an “eco-boho” approach is drawing families from the neighborhood. Worried that its pupils will leave, headteacher Zahia decides to remake Jacques-Prévert as the suburbs’ first “green school.” She teams up with Marion, a new teacher who has come from the countryside and is full of ideas.
