User Reviews

Brilliant drama about female left-outs

This is a brilliant drama, occasionally very funny, about a group of left-out and "loosers" women in nowadays France. The topic is faced in a very true way, especially the characters are very true, probably many have been taken from the street. These women frequent a center where little by little, also through very sad situations, they retrieve their dignity. Brilliant ending.
