Every year, thousands of students in France begin training in nursing care. After being accepted by the Institut de Formation en Soins Infirmiers, their studies consist of courses in theory, practical exercises and service in hospitals. It is a difficult and intensive training course during which they gain extensive knowledge and skills, practical processes and prepare themselves to take on great responsibility.

"The various and diverse characters on screen give the film an energy and zest "
