With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.
Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.Is it for you?
- Who'll love it
- Made for anyone nostalgic for their awkward years and fans of a well-timed joke. It gets the awkwardness and the high stakes of being young. Shelve it next to Booksmart or Easy A.
- The mood
- Light and funny.
- The pace
- Breezy, at 1 hr 54 min.
- What might put you off
- It's in French, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the pick if you want something heavy or meaningful.
Aurélie Laflamme is in fifth grade and is preparing for her prom, which she imagines will be wonderful. Surrounded by her best friend Kat, her lover Nicolas Dubuc and her best friend Tommy Durocher, Aurélie will have to face heartbreaking choices about her future and who she really wants to be. An uncompromising professor will come to confront her in her academic and professional choices. MEANWHILE, her mother, who now has a new lover, seems distant and emotional. Aurélie will have to try to understand and find a place for herself in this world which sometimes seems thankless to her.
