How modern is Simone de Beauvoir's life and work? Why does she remain a reference for the majority of feminists around the world? Why is The Second Sex still an essential book? This film traces the trajectory and the main lines of one of the freest minds of the 21st century. The ambition of this documentary is to bring the author of Memoirs of a Dutiful Girl to life and to make her contemporary. To achieve this, exceptional archives and the testimonies of powerful women from diverse backgrounds are used: Leïla Slimani, Elisabeth Badinter, Titiou Lecoq.
