J'ai pas les mots, 8 semaines pour sortir de l'illettrisme

Directed by Matthieu Buirette

In France, 3.7 million people are illiterate. "J'ai pas les mots, 8 semaines pour sortir de l'illettrisme" (I don't have the words, 8 weeks to overcome illiteracy) gives them a face, a voice, and above all, a chance. For eight weeks, seven participants from different backgrounds, all facing illiteracy, will follow an intensive learning program, supervised by trainers and coaches, and accompanied by singer Kendji Girac. Through practical, fun, and realistic workshops, they will tackle everyday challenges. Week after week, these learners will attempt to regain their independence and, above all, their self-confidence. Until the final challenge: writing and reading a personal speech in front of their loved ones.
