"Victor Hugo's classic about the policeman Javert and the prisoner Jean Valjean illuminated topical issues: Can we defend a person who, in the struggle for a decent life, commits actions punishable by law? Is it always right to demand that a person makes up for it?
A person flees a brutal life. He lies about his identity to be able to start over somewhere else. After many years in safety, his lie is revealed, and as punishment he becomes an exile. The fall is bottomless. But the judged one isn't the only one who has lost his footing. The one who punished him also stumble. Was this the right thing?"
