Drama France
As the new school year begins, Laure continues to masquerade as Mickaël and befriends a group of local boys who are unaware of her true identity. She becomes particularly close to a girl named Lisa, who develops strong feelings for "Mickaël." The two spend a lot of time together, forming a deep bond.
Meanwhile, Laure's younger sister Jeanne is aware of her sister's secret but doesn't fully understand the reasons behind it. She often witnesses Laure's interactions with her new friends and becomes curious about what it feels like to be a boy. Jeanne starts experimenting with gender expression herself, creating a sense of play and exploration within the family dynamic.
As time goes on, maintaining the deception becomes increasingly challenging for Laure. The line between her true identity and the boy she is pretending to be begins to blur, causing internal conflicts and emotional turmoil. She struggles with balancing her burgeoning feelings for Lisa and the fear of revealing the truth, which she believes may shatter the friendship they have built.
Gradually, the truth about Laure's gender identity starts to unravel as her classmates and their families discover the secret. Her identity is met with a combination of confusion, acceptance, and, in some cases, hostility. Laure's parents, initially unaware of their daughter's actions, confront her about her behavior and encourage her to be honest with herself and others.
Towards the end of the movie, Laure makes the brave decision to reveal her true identity to Lisa, leading to a profound realization for both of them about love, acceptance, and self-discovery. The film concludes with Laure's family embracing her for who she truly is, her friends learning to understand and support her, and Laure's journey towards self-acceptance and understanding of her own gender identity.
