The production is inspired by the renowned French sociologist Didier Eribon's book. As a young man, Eribon moved out from the working-class suburbs of Reims and settled down in Paris. This enabled his coming out, paved the way for social advance, but also disclosed a sense of shame because of his working-class background. After his father's death the author returns to his hometown to confront his own past and class identity. Returning to Reims is a kind of personal confession, a reckoning and accusation thrown at himself.
