In this episode, Anne-Sylvie will question the time of passage from childhood to adulthood through two encounters: that of Getolio, a young boy from the Xavante tribe in the Brazilian Amazon and Silla in Papua New Guinea.
These two ways of living out the end of childhood question a period of life that does not seem to exist in these traditional societies: adolescence. In the West, where rites of passage such as military service have disappeared, the time of adolescence is getting longer and longer, and with it a certain unease. As if the wandering between two worlds – that of the children and that of the adults – did not have a clear ending. As if this unraveling provoked a psychological discomfort that could go as far as a profound disorder.
