GOLDEN GLOBE WINNER: BEST FOREIGN LANGUAGE FILM

Ludovic is waiting for a miracle. With six-year-old certainty, they believe they are meant to be a little girl and that the mistake will soon be corrected. But where they expect the miraculous, Ludo finds only rejection, isolation and guilt as the intense reactions of family, friends, and neighbors strip away every innocent lace and bauble. As suburban prejudices close around them, family loves and loyalties are tested in the ever-escalating dramatic turns of this critically acclaimed film. Ma Vie En Rose delivers magic of the rarest sort through a story of difference, rejection, and childlike faith.
