Thirteen-year-old Grégoire remembers his first teacher saying of him: "A head like a sieve, golden hands and a big heart...". This is how he lives from day to day: he adores his grandfather, does crafts and hates school, where his parents send him every morning.
One day, having learned that there is a lyceum where boys are always making something, he closes himself in his room, writes a funny and touching letter asking to be allowed to study there, puts in the envelope drawings of his first invention - a machine for peeling bananas - and ... excitedly waits. Maybe marks are not the most important thing and it is much more important to know what you want from life?
