Mathieu, a shy 18-year-old, is on summer vacation in the South of France with his family and Annick, who takes care of his depressive mother. One day, Mathieu meets Cédric at the beach. What starts out as a tumultuous summer fling unfolds into an ardent love story over time.
Few life milestones so massively expand the perspective of young minds quite like the enormity of first love, where you feel anything’s possible and that you want it to last forever. Lifshitz’s visually striking, nuanced early feature flips between one such romance’s summer start and its wintry end.
