In the background of a city reduced to silence by the pandemic, in a high school in which the presence of “bodies” is temporally calculated, a therapist tries to build an experience with adolescents that transforms what remains of the class into a group. Techniques, methodologies and devices, starting from the narration around the proper name, lead to analytical psychodrama, in the awareness of the difference compared to strictly clinical work. The goal is to make the class a group that thinks and communicates, nourishing the pleasure of learning. The physiognomy of the group is outlined in filigree, perhaps just starting from the model that Anzieu calls transitional, which presupposes respect for rules: active silence, suspension of judgment, listening to the other.
