What it's about
François Lepic has to write a composition on the theme of "family" - nothing more simple than that. Little François Lepic, who is only called "Red Head", has his problems with this task though. His mother maltreats and scolds his all the time, his older siblings make fun of him and his father seems not to care about him at all. Be it a piece of melon or just a smile, his mother refuses it to him. She grabs every opportunity to express her frustration. One night, when she realizes that Red Head relieves himself in the chimney, because she had locked his door before going to bed, she puts his chamber pot under his bed to make it look like he had had the choice - only to be able to punish him afterwards. The only one who realizes Madame Lepic's cruelties is the maid Annette, who subsequently takes care of the boy. His wishes of a picture perfect family is something Red Head cannot stop thinking about, since all he wants is to be loved. When money is missing from the family purse and Red Head is suspected of stealing and this situation degenerates into a massive falling out between the parents, Red Head feels more responsible than ever for the failed marriage. Plagued by the feeling that he is unloved - and maybe even not loving his own mother anymore - he seeks shelter and security with his best friend, the dog. In his desperation he only sees one way to betterment, even redemption. Red Head, however, is not quite as alone as he had hitherto believed .
