Sans famille

Seven year old Rémi has a happy childhood with a woman he thinks is his mother. Driven by poverty, the woman's husband gets rid of Rémi by hiring him out to Vitalis, an aging travelling entertainer and animal-trainer. At first, all Rémi can think of is to go back to his 'mother'. But he finds out that he is actually an orphan and becomes attached to the old man. His path is fraught with tragedy and adventure, but Rémi will find his real family, at last.
