Winter 1917. A courageous little girl goes through the war with a fixed idea. She seeks the truth and nothing can stop her.
Rosalie is five and a half years old. Her father is at the front and her mother works in the factory. So, even if she is not yet old enough, Rosalie spends her days at school, in the senior class. It is believed that she dreams and draws while waiting for the evening. But Rosalie made a mission for herself, like those of real soldiers. She's a captain and she has a plan.
