Interesting in parts
I found Anaïs in the movie much more interesting than Emma. Emma came across a little miserable. She reminded me of Kirsten Stewart. Her mother was kind of a irritant though and her bickering with her mom was funny. Anaïs when on screen kept the interest. She was likeable. Emma wasn't. Still worth watching.

in profound sense, beautiful
Kirpianuscus30 January 2023
An ambitious project and honest portrait of teenagers, between family, studies, death of loved one and boyfriends, plans about future and maturity exam, small talks and the leaving from home, fears, frustrations, different sources of tension and the end of childhood.

But, obvious, the first virtue is to be a beautiful eulogy of friendship.

The second - the status of mirror, easy being for viewer to recognize fragments or only crumbs from his teen period.

A documentary charming for conflicts between girs and theirs mothers, for the transformation, for the relation with politic and for something who seems so closed by the stories of viewer.

So, in profound manner, just inspired.

Subjects of this film, au revoir, and good luck with your lives, and when you grow old youll be remembering, and surtainly not wanna be adolescent again when youre 50 in 2050. enjoy life and dont look too much back is my advice.

as a documentary i think this film had a lot of flaws, its utterly slow, its mostly filmed in close up shoots and thematically it could surtainly have been attacked from other angles and depth. what annoys me most is the lack of timeline, lack of information about where it all happens, the historical milestones are misplaced and not debated enough afterwards(charlie hebdo=nothing at all, the house fire mentioned once.) and for the foreign viewer the french educational system could easily have been elaborated 100% better.

therefore the grumpy old man didnt get much outta this film, its bla bla and i hate my mum stuff and cell phones en masse, at the plus section, good looking femmes
