Fernand Deligny

A group of educators led by Fernand Deligny are working to create contact with autistic children in a hamlet of the Cevennes.

Fernand Deligny speaks of the object of his observation: autism. He talks about it as the researcher he is, with approximations, questions and gives us the most accurate picture possible. By successive keys, he brings us into the troubling enigma of a world without language. He puts us on the watch, with him in an unknown land. He addresses the filmmaker Renaud Victor and Renaud Victor share his dazzlement: he films intelligence at work.

Famous educator Fernand Deligny tries to find ways to communicate beyond language with troubled and autistic children in his care.
