This language-instruction program uses the concept of community, people united by choice or by necessity, as a point of entry into French conversation. Monks at a Trappist monastery and soldiers undergoing basic training are spotlighted, along with nine young professionals who call a single Paris apartment home. Also featured are interactions between people in need and members of Emmaüs Angers and Les Restos du Coeur, two organizations dedicated to helping them. Produced by the Open University. (French, 47 minutes)
