SYNOPSIS

Sonia is a young girl convinced that English is the only international language. But on a trip to Madagascar, she discovers a start-up of advanced technology, with stunning growth. Curious, she questions the spring of this success: the French language!

Shaken within her certainties, she launches herself in an investigation: what if, all things considered, speaking French was an asset?

From country to country, she goes from astonishment to astonishment. Rash and insolent, she wrestles answers from small and great businessman, from ministers, from artists. And what answers! She discovers that the economic dimension of the Francophonie is an Eldorado. A wealth which -Sonia bewildered by it-is neglected. To begin with the incomprehensible disinterest of France towards this cause. Sonia, now aware of the stakes, is overwhelmed. Fortunately, she meets a multitude of enthusiastic people. Together, they mark a new path.

PITCH

What if our borders were no longer the territory but the language? What if supporting his language was not a nationalist withdrawal but an extraordinary opening to the world? What if this openness was a gigantic economic opportunity creating jobs and values? What if it was not too late?

« My country, it is the French language », Albert Camus, french writer.

Do you speak french?
