Fifty years, Edith Piaf died. Almost everything that there is to say has already been said about the talent, the power of interpretation, the popularity, charisma and unique voice beyond equal But less has been said of the young Edith, the street singer, her courage, strength and fight for life. This drama plunges actresses and audience into an intense image of Edith.

Shocked, Edith, accompanied by her dresser, clings to her happy memories: her childhood, her father, Père Gassion, the streets, chansons, men …. How will she overcome her grief? Will her love for her public make her strong enough to get on that stage, move forward?
