Théo is given up for adoption by his biological mother on the very day he is born. After this anonymous birth, the mother has two months to change her mind… Or not. The child welfare services and adoption service spring into action… The former have to take care of the baby and support it during this limbo-like time, this period of uncertainty, while the latter must find a woman to become his adoptive mother. She is called Alice, and she has spent the last ten years fighting to have a child.

What a beautiful movie. Perfect cast. I agree with the comment saying it was too cold, the emotion came a bit late but that ending was very moving tho. I insist: perfect cast, even the baby was perfect.

_In Safe Hands_ (_Pupille_, or 'ward of the state' in French) is a very informative film about the procedures followed when a woman wants to give up her child for adoption in France. It works very well on a documentary level, but it has all the emotion of a dentist appointment. While the director squeezes in a little feeling in the final minutes, the rest of the film is very cold and stark. People argue, fuck, give birth, break up, suffer, get rejected, adopt babies all with a freakishly oppressive stoicism. _In Safe Hands_ is more like a high school sex-ed movie than the thoughtful melodrama it sets out to be.
