In this biting satire of the French aristocracy, Philippe Heriat exposes the decadence and corruption that permeated Parisian high society in the 19th century. The titular 'spoiled children' are the privileged few who manipulate the political and social spheres for their own gain, heedless of the suffering of those around them.
