Charlotte Castang is a working-class 13-year-old girl, who lives in a drab, run-down neighbourhood, and is ready to become an adult. Her mother died giving birth to her, and she lives with her crass brother and a father whose attention is elsewhere. Her only friend is Lulu, a sick 10-year-old she regards as a pest. Charlotte is antisocial, bored and dreams of a better life. Her life improves when she meets Clara Bauman, a pianist prodigy.

This movie needs more recognition, like fym only 5k ppl logged it??
Absolutely loved it and Charlotte Gainsbourg ate this up.
The pedo stuff might seem weird at first but as the movie goes on u see that they're trying to show u how fucked up it is.
