was recommended by mubi, some touching and relatable moments completely undone by the entire film seeming like an overwritten pretentious mess. also can filmmakers please stop writing films where a relationship with someone underage is ok and romantic ? just felt sick for half of this film, also main character is a bratty annoying loser sorry maybe i just didn’t get it whatever

Honoré arrive à illustrer avec une finesse incroyable la perte de repères face au deuil, surtout à cette période de fin d’enfance - ce qui est plutôt logique vu qu'il l'a vécu lui-même. au fond, c'est juste l'histoire d'un gamin gay complètement désorienté face à tout ça, qui tâtonne et expérimente, quitte à aller trop loin parfois. encore une fois merci pour ce film et merci Binoche bordel
