Written by Francis Monty in 2001 and reworked in 2018, Leo the zero is a powerful text that tells the story of Leo’s life. At school, little Leo is the scapegoat of his classmates. At home, he tries to find his place between his nervous and impatient mother and his brother Terryy, an excellent chocolate salesman swimming in cash and oh-so sure of himself. In a bid to escape, Leo dreams of becoming a train – both strong and powerful. He swallows nail after nail as he waits for his birthdays to turn his legs into wheels.
