Movie synopsis:
When municipal officials decide that a women shelter, “L’Envol,” (“The Takeoff”) is not helping enough people get off the streets and back to work, they shut it down. The managers have to deal with the consequences. They decide to keep it open clandestinely, allowing their girls to stay there overnight while training the women in the day to become confident and functioning members of society. With a riotous sense of humour and sangfroid and cracking lots of jokes without never shying away from the reality of their situations, they will do everything they can for their prestigious come back into society.
