SYNOPSIS
Gérard is a 16 year old youngster and has to write an essay.
He chooses the theme «my deep thoughts».
While he is writing and rereading his essay, it is shown how he lives
outside his family surroundings, as a privileged youngster, with his
friends.
These shots are interrupted by a few pictures illustrating his deep
thoughts. The film shows the contrast existing between the thoughts of
a young man and his every-day life.
