Born in 2009, fourth-grader Idrissa is one half of a set of twin boys. In the family of six children, 2 girls and 4 boys are raised. The father is a livestock trader, the mother runs the household. The father went to school for a few years and speaks French, the mother is illiterate. All children go to school, the oldest is already a university student. The little boy has no textbooks, still in his notebook we see grades 9/10, 10/10 all over. He is among the best students in his class. They eat twice a day, usually no dinner. Idrissa loves literature, he likes to read a lot. He doesn't help at home, his mother says with a smile, he just reads all the time. Unless he's playing soccer with the others. His favorite team is Real Madrid. Tuition fees are difficult to pay, and payments are often missed.
