About
The story of a child abandoned at birth who is shunted around from foster family to foster family. Despite numerous pitfalls along the way, Olivier courageously and tenaciously learns to be confident about life, to accept the inevitable transitions and to hope for the better. His firm objective is to turn 18, be independent at last and have some control over his life without being beholden to anyone.
