Waël, a former street kid from the Parisian suburbs, makes a living from small-time scams that he carries out together with Monique (Deneuve), a retired woman who is clearly very fond of him. His life reaches a turning point when, upon the insistence of Monique, one of her friends, Victor (Dussollier), offers him a job as a volunteer in his centre for children who have been excluded from the school system. Waël gradually finds himself taking charge of a group of six teenagers expelled for truancy, rudeness and even carrying a weapon. This explosive encounter between the "weeds" will produce a true miracle.
