Beid, Hafsa, Manessa, Mohammad… children from all over the world are learning a new language. Under the benevolent eyes of their teacher, these pupils, whose immigrant parents hold modest jobs in Vienna, forming a group of primary school students as heterogeneous as they are endearing. As an attentive documentarian, Ruth Beckermann follows their progress over three years with remarkable closeness. Her empathetic lens bears witness to a real success story in terms of integration, tolerance and living together. Heir to Nicolas Philibert's "To Be and to Have," "Favoriten" follows in the footsteps of the great works of educational observation. A lesson in humanity addressed to all those who swear by the hardening of borders.
