There are more and more homeless women today. They experience the greatest of difficulties when attempting to reintegrate society.
15 years ago, Mona Chasserio chose to radically change her life and founded “Coeur de femmes” in Paris, an organization which invented a new and original means of helping these women.
“Coeur de femmes” offers a roof over one’s head, hot meal, and above all an ability to listen to women who often know drug addiction, prostitution, violence and family break ups. These women frequently come from the street, hospital or jail.
Every woman contributes to collective life at the home, and finds there psychological, medical social and judicial supervision. Every woman participates in workshops such as French lessons, singing, sports, theatre…
Filming in the heart of this extreme destitution and fragility, the director makes the spectator able to feel and understand from the inside, an unsettling reality we brush past every single day.
