In the occupied France by Nazi Regime , a kid :Alan Cohen is sent away from his family : Charles Denner to countryside , where he is cared by an elderly marriage . There Michael Simon protecting , teaching and loving deeply the little boy . Although, he has an anti-Jewish and extreme right-wing ideology , but he doesn't know the child results to be an unfortunate Jew.

A really sensitive film with an enjoyable relationship between the great Michael Simon and the intimate child . It is a very attractive film with terrific performances dealing with human relations with high sensibility , family love , and brooding message against racism. Here stands out the wonderful interpretation by the extremely touching Michael Simon , he is a complete show , he's really the sense of the film along with the little boy Alain Cohen , who is excellent as well , both of whom are magnificent . It displays an agreeable musical score by maestro George Deleure, as well as atmospheric cinematography in black and white by Jean Penzer . The motion picture was very well directed by notorious writer , producer and director Claude Berri.
