A 20-something Quebecoise has some growing up to do in this sweetly absurd, wryly comic film. Vibrantly shot in textured black-and-white 35mm, it displays a disciplined visual sense, a good ear for dialogue and characters that become ever-more endearing as the episodic action progresses.
Nicole is a tart-tongued 22-year-old who still lives in her parents’ comfortable home. She has an undemanding job, a casual sex life, and spends loads of time doing nothing in particular with her pretty best friend Veronique. But her aimless summer brings her into contact with an assortment of odd and original characters. Foremost among these is her former babysitting charge who boasts a prematurely deep voice and a precocious desire to get into her pants.
