In a future where the planet is parched, where migratory movements have led to endless wars, where works that kept traces of history have disappeared, where humanity has become sterile and each birth is welcomed as a true miracle, the surviving humans have built refuge stations in orbit to welcome young children, protect them, raise them, and thus establish a new humanity.

In one of these refuge stations, a dozen children, placed by their parents for their survival, tell each other stories, practice music, and listen to the stories of a humanoid – who holds the memory of the world – tasked with educating them. But when a new child arrives in the refuge, certainties collapse one after the other…

A futuristic and musical fable, “La Décision – Les Enfants du monde à venir” takes us on a memorable and joyful post-apocalyptic journey, where children and parents share their fears and regrets, their hopes and aspirations for the future, to finally act together and change the future that awaits us. After all, isn’t the only question to ask which planet we will leave to our children?
