Ça commence parfois par une inquiétude ou un malaise. On se sent en décalage, on craint d'agir de manière déplacée. On a le sentiment de ne pas "être à sa place". Mais qu'est-ce qu'être à sa place, dans sa famille, son couple, son travail ? Quels sont les espaces, réels ou symboliques, qui nous accueillent ou nous rejettent ? Faut-il tenter de conquérir les places qui nous sont interdites, à cause de notre genre, notre handicap, notre âge, notre origine ethnique ou sociale ?
