Amédée was "found" on Saint Innocent’s day, but "we weren’t going to call him Innocent !", in spite of the custom which consists in giving abandoned children the name on the calendar that corresponds to the day they were taken in.
Today, eighty years later, he still bears this wound, he cannot imagine the mother who brought him into the world.
Marie-Adélaïde, renamed by her adopted parents, is, on the contrary, involved in an active search to find her biological mother and appropriate her history which was crossed out by an X.
From the intimate experience of abandonment words are woven.
