Family, national priority
This Sunday, Zone Interdite lifts the veil on the multiple faces of the modern family in France. In a constantly evolving society, M6’s flagship show explores new family models that shake up conventions and redefine parental bonds.
While 83% of French people place family at the top of their priorities, the very concept of the family unit is undergoing a profound change. Zone Interdite invites us to discover five families who have chosen to free themselves from the traditional pattern, offering us a unique insight into their daily challenges and their joys.
Homosexual co-parenting: a four-way challenge
The show presents Virginie, Sandrine, Nicolas and David, two homosexual couples who raise Victor (9 years old) and Juliette (16 years old) together. This co-parenting model raises fascinating questions: how to adapt your home? How to make crucial decisions between four people? The report explores the subtleties of this innovative family configuration.

Parenthood and transidentity: breaking down prejudices
Kevin, a transgender father, opens the doors of his home to us where he is raising twins with his partner Emilie. His journey illustrates the determination to be recognized as a father in his own right, beyond prejudice.
In another home, we meet Mattéo and Victoire, the first transgender couple in France to have given birth to a child. Their story highlights the administrative challenges faced by these new family configurations, with the civil state struggling to adapt to these modern realities.
Blended families: the art of living together
With 130,000 divorces finalized each year, blended families are becoming more and more common. Zone Interdite immerses us in the daily life of Jérémie, who juggles between his own children and those of his partner, from previous unions. A challenge to authority and family harmony that raises universal questions about parenting.
Solo motherhood: an assumed choice
Finally, the show follows the journey of Séverine, who chose to become a solo mother thanks to medically assisted procreation, now accessible to single women. From the first ultrasound to Adriel’s birth, we discover how a single-parent family is built by choice.
This exceptional issue of Zone Interdite offers a striking panorama of the diversity of family models in today’s France. Without judgment, but with deep humanity, the show invites us to reflect on the evolution of our society and on what constitutes the very essence of a family: love and mutual support, whatever its form. or its composition.
