Ils s’appellent Azouaou, Abderhamène, Louise, Shana, Kyria ou Yanis, ils ont entre 3 ans et 4 ans quand ils commencent à discuter librement et tous ensemble de l’amour, la liberté, l’autorité, la différence, l’intelligence… Durant leurs premières années de maternelle, ces enfants, élèves à l’école d’application Jacques Prévert de Le Mée-sur- Seine, dans une ZEP de Seine-et-Marne, ont expérimenté avec leur maîtresse, Pascaline, la mise en place d’un atelier à visée philosophique.

Plot

"Just A Beginning" follows a nursery school class for a period of two years. But this is a very unusual class as the children, aged three to five study... philosophy! Seated in a circle around a ritually lit candle, the children, in a fresh, funny and sometimes merciless manner, approach the universal subjects of love, power, difference, growing up, death etc. Little by little the philosophy workshop becomes a privileged moment where each child reflects on the words of the other, learns how to listen and to build a discourse. From now on they will be able to think for themselves! With their emotions, their unusual expressions and their contradictions, the children of this nursery school deliver a single testimony on an innovative experiment. "Just A Beginning" is the fabulous true story of a school with an eye on the future.
