Nous n'irons plus au bois
Josée Dayan
There are those who have chosen the light and those who lead a discreet life, those who have told their story and those who bear their secrets alone, those who have found peace and those who are still looking for it ... But behind the diversity of life paths, these women and men all have an extraordinary destiny: that of being born in a body that did not stick to their true identity and , at the cost of real physical and moral suffering, to have corrected this "carelessness" of nature. Transsexuals are not strictly speaking taboo. We talk about it and we even talk about it a lot. But have we ever really listened to them?

At the heart of the story are the women in Balzac's life. Although gruff, unsophisticated, and far from handsome, Balzac exerts an irresistible fascination on women.
