Plot

Fifteen-year-old Céline knows more about life than is appropriate for her age. She wanders the streets, surviving, with the help of her boyfriend Romain, thanks to her defiance and ruthless practicality.

Sinekatalog’s take

A tense coming-of-age story about a streetwise teenage girl who survives on defiance and calculation. It avoids pity and keeps a cool, edgy distance. Unsettling and well-observed for admirers of unsentimental French youth dramas.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
