Inseparable (2001)

12-year-old Éric has been placed in a reintegration center in La Rochelle, awaiting adoption. He becomes friends with Petia, a young boy of Russian origin, older than him, a street juggler who pursues the dream of working like his father in a circus as soon as he leaves the institution. Meanwhile, Pierre and Corinne adopts Marie and also want Eric to become their son and take steps in this direction, but the doctor is opposed to the child leaving the establishment too quickly because he judges him in latent depression. One weekend Petia is blamed for the misdeeds of Momo and Graf, two other teenagers in care.
