The Children of Others

, by Rebecca Zlotowski, released in theaters last Wednesday, Virginie Efira plays Rachel, a teacher in her forties.

She meets a divorced architect and father of a four-year-old girl, for whom she takes a liking.

Beyond the theme of motherhood and transmission, this feature film addresses the issue of blended families.

And above all, relationships, sometimes thorny, sometimes touching, between stepchildren and stepparents.

In France, according to a 2020 INSEE study, 9% of families are said to be blended, that is to say that one of the two parents has already had a child from a previous union.


You are a step-parent, what relationship do you have with your step-children or step-grandchildren?

What memories have you been able to share over the years?

What were the tensions, with this child or with your spouse?
