Ça commence aujourd´hui is a film that allows to know life as it is. Through the life of the school´s children we approached the atmosphere of desolation of an old French mining town. At the same time, we approached the personal situation of the professor who is the conductive thread of history. The life breathed in the landscapes. To feel the near life and to experience the love and the pain, the happiness and the anguish, the vitality and the apathy.
