A humanitarian worker's certitudes are challenged after meeting a savvy child worker.
Theo, a dispirited workplace humanitarian, audits a child laborer at a cardboard plant in a port city. Young Malak's grit and low-key fortitude, displaying a maturity beyond his years, impress the man.
When that boy, the same age as his own son, disappears, Theo cannot let it rest.
His quest for answers only raises more questions about the traps of structured help and acquired privilege.
An unsettling 11 000-word psychological drama quietly told by multiple awards-winning Canadian author Michèle Laframboise.
