Throughout his life, André Gide was haunted by questions of a religious and moral nature. When he published "Les Nourritures terrestres" (English: "The Fruits of the Earth") in 1897, success opened the doors to the literary salons. There he met with Paul Valery. Several trips to North Africa made Gide discover "the exploitation of man by man", which he endeavors to denounce. In the company of his daughter, his grandchildren and his friends, Gide evokes his life, his work and his choices. Testimonies from his relatives complete this tribute realized at the death of the writer, in 1952.
