This conversation between a French man and his young son in the wake of the Paris attacks may well restore your faith in humanity.

In an interview conducted by Canal+ TV show Le Petit Journal, a reporter is seen asking a young boy whether he understands why extremists killed people in Paris on Friday.

The boy, Brandon, who was visiting the memorial site outside the Bataclan Theatre with his father, answers: "yes, because they're really, really mean.

"And we have to be really careful because we have to change house."

At that moment his father, Angel, enters into a moving conversation about the attacks, reassuring his son that they would not move away from Paris because "France is our home".

Mr Le, who is originally from Vietnam and now lives in Paris, tells Brandon that he doesn’t have to be afraid of the "bad guys with guns" because "we have flowers".
After listening to his father's words about the power of unity in the face of evil, Brandon reveals he feels much better.

Watch the emotional moment in the video above.
