Given Names

At the beginning of one's life, there is a first name. A first name chosen by one's father or mother, sometimes by both. Those who receive this first name can adopt it instantly. Others reinvent it, out of a deep personal need. "Given names" is a tribute to friendship that invites us to meet twelve 'protagonist-friends' who tell their stories through their first names. Blending the French language with the diverse origins of first names, it is a polyphony of echoes, a generous cultural journey shared with us in the tone of friendly conversation.
