France/2007/84 mins/subtitled/15. Dir: Celine Sciamma. With Pauline Acquart, Adele Haenel, Louise Blachere.
A sensitive, sorrowful and daring portrait of female adolescence that focuses on longings, sexual confusions and the grey areas of desire. The Parisian suburbs and, especially, the guys and gals of a local synchronised-swimming club offer a distinctive canvas on which to plant three 15-year-olds all trying to make sense of the awakening of awkward, intense feelings for boys and for one another.
Premiering at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival in Un Certain Regard, Celine Sciamma and her young cast were widely hailed as among the most talented newcomers to emerge from the festival.
