At the age of 13, Robin drops out of school. His grades are insufficient even at a special school and, on top of everything, his health is getting worse and worse. That was over 20 years ago. Today, he runs his own hair salon. We explore Robin's story, talk to family members and those involved to find out how a child could fail the Swiss school system and whether he would have been better off today.

All'età di 13 anni, Robin abbandona la scuola. I suoi voti sono insufficienti anche in una scuola speciale e, come se non bastasse, la sua salute peggiora sempre di più. Oggi gestisce il suo salone di parrucchiere. Esploriamo la storia di Robin, parliamo con i membri della famiglia e le persone coinvolte per scoprire come un bambino possa cadere nel sistema scolastico svizzero e se oggi starebbe meglio.
