Only Contemporary European and French cinema can give you both so much simplicity and grandiosity in a plot.

While at least one of the main actresses in this was about a decade older than the character she portrayed, you almost buy it. And she plays it loose and "innocent". Though most would not call her innocent at all. Not in any sexual way that is, because she really puts herself out there.

And while she is doing that, her friend is the introvert and able to express herself the same way. Now if you are judging one or the other, that is I reckon fair. But remember that we are all different and we do experience things different. This is about a summer that helps both those girls grow to become the person they end up to be.

Maybe not highly philosophical, maybe not the best movie, but it is quite the decent one. If you don't mind the occasional nudity and sexual situation depicted here that is of course. Sparsely used but still some may feel "offended"

This movie has the visual style of Call Me By Your Name and just as much action. It's a film set in the summer in Cannes and the main characters are two girl cousins who spend their time together. One, a 16 year naive that doesn't yet know what she wants and a 22 year one that has already found a calling in being an escort for rich men. That's it. The acting is good, the situations believable and we learn how actual people react in actual situations. Yet the film makes no effort in exploring the set up in depth. There are no artificial dramas either. Just a girl figuring herself out. And other than a few breast scenes, it's not particularly erotic either.
