How can we talk about the Shoah? Can it still resonate with new generations? As the last witnesses disappear, will places of memory and history books end up being the only repositories of this past? For one school year, the film accompanies the 9th grade students who, with their history teacher, participate in the "Convoy 77" project by conducting a real investigation to reconstruct the life of a deportee from the last large convoy that left Drancy for Auschwitz.

Fixing broken down items in the apartments is the least of their worries. Finally one of the maintenance men must win the contest, by any means.
