Film Synopsis
When their car break down, a gang of crooks takes refuge in a remote
house, which is a rehabilitation establishment for maladjusted children
run by Irène and Roger. As Irène attends to one of
the crooks' wounded leg, the boys in her care divide themselves into
two opposing factions, led by the good-natured Rouquin and
trouble-causing Micou. When the crooks ask him to help repair
their car Micou seizes the opportunity to escape in the car. The
crook Charlot manages to immobilise the vehicle and drags Micou back
into the house. As the waiting game begins, with some of the boys
sympathetic to the crooks, Rouquin sees the opportunity he has been
waiting for....
