Although the artist's career began at the same time as popular music emerged as an industry and was acclaimed everywhere as "la marchande de bonheur" (the merchant of happiness). She encountered unhappiness ; she experienced many deaths and rebirths. Her forced march towards fame resembles a frantic search ending in despair.

Her brother channels his sense of injustice into the battle to save the planet. As the school year progresses and her parents struggle to mend their lives and as the girl approaches her 13th birthday, she learns to see the world in a new way.
