At a private school for boys, 16-year-old Guillaume has a secret – he’s falling in love with his best friend. His 18-year-old sister Charlotte is caught off guard when her boyfriend proposes an open relationship. At a summer camp, 12-year-old Felix falls in love with Béatrice. Everything is changing. In this complex, profoundly emotional film, director Philippe Lesage uses an unconventional structure to capture the traumas of adolescence and first loves. The non-linear narrative follows three interconnected experiences, interwoven with tragedy and cosmic coincidence. An intimate, stealthily transgressive, and unsettling portrait of adolescent desire.
