Zébédée, aged ten, admires his father, a Martinican who drives the tram linking Montferrand to Royat. When a company inspector reproaches the father for his alcoholism, the humiliated boy flees towards the Puy-de-Dôme. A solitary outcast living in a cave, who calls himself the «king of the ferns», takes him in; with him he discovers freedom and imagination.
