Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Hugo is 19 years old. Like every summer, he spends his holidays on an Atlantic island, in the small family house. But this year is different: Hugo has undergone a physical transformation and arrives with his girlfriend, Queen, a beautician whose lively chatter and long, glittery nails contrast sharply with the young man’s modesty and shyness. Before long, the couple becomes the focus of everyone’s attention.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”

Editor Ludivine Cambus shaped the rhythm. On an edit-heavy film, the editor does more to control your pulse than the director.
