Cool!

Ah the troubling years of adolescence! This very interesting movie shows us how Raudoudou deals with her teenage years. She's looking towards THE first time, with anxiety. Parallel to her story, two teenage boys own adventures on the trail of sexual experiments. Some parts are very funny, some are touching. Julie Durand is very good as Raudoudou.

Out of 100, I gave it 75. That's good for **½ out of **** stars.

Seen in Toronto, at the Canada Square Famous Players Cinemas, during the French-film festival Cinéfranco, on April 8th, 2002.
