A young girl (Suzanne Lindon) from Paris is bored with her peers and daydreams into a soul mate with an actor (Arnaud Valois, known from "120 BPM") who is almost twenty years her senior. What could seem raunchy or overly trite is staged as light as a feather, poetic and, in some places, surprisingly funny.
Suzanne Lindon, born in 2000, daughter of the French acting stars Sandrine Kiberlain and Vincent Lindon, proves to be a true multi-talent: script, direction, leading role and then she also sings the title song "Seize Printemps". Navel gazing? Protection from famous parents? Absolutely not! One must honestly admit that an artistic voice can be heard here, from which a lot can be expected in the future. Suzanne Lindon approaches her topic in a self-deprecating and serious manner at the same time and finds beautiful images for emotions that can hardly be put into words. At the same time, she has created a beautiful Paris film that shows the megacity as a cocoon that is sometimes turned away from the world
The Theater de l'Atelier, which plays a major role in the film, is located in Montmartre. By the way, it is very comforting that young Parisians can still listen to the EuroDance sounds of Dr. Alban is the best way to celebrate!
Worth seeing!
