On the edge of the abyss, he develops a desperate plan to try to get his head above water. You only have one life to earn your heaven...

Description
Felix Boyd-Dresner, 6 years old, must speaks English and a little French.

Felix is the son of Sarah Dresner and Michael Boyd. Like his mother, he was born into a world of extreme privilege and will likely never face financial problems. However, he is obviously far too young to be aware of this. He doesn't realize that others – Nacer or his classmate Zakaria, for example – are not in the same situation as he is. Felix is a cheerful boy with a sharp mind, but with a hint of shyness that can sometimes make him appear a bit distant.
