Plot Summary

Manon, Aurore and Marie would like to represent their high school at the Young Challenge "special dance" organized by the City of Paris: if they win, they will be able to leave for a month in the country of their dreams, far from all constraints - But on the day of the shortlisting, Manon panics and flees the scene: the girls are disqualified. Fortunately, Djena, the best dancer in high school, just got angry with her group considered to be the winner. Manon, to make up for it, manages to persuade her to join them. The Headmaster finally agreed to register the two rival groups for the Youth Challenge. Djena, then imposes his conditions. Their choreography will be inspired by a traditional Indian dance and they will have only one watchword: sensuality, which will allow them, facing the jury, to compensate for obvious technical weaknesses. However, according to Djena, the only solution to flourish in dance is the discovery of pleasure. They are only a month old. Then begins a funny and sensitive quest that will reveal them to themselves. Indeed, if Aurore has been with her boyfriend for a long time, he is far from being the ideal lover. Manon, inhibited by her complexes and Marie, suffocated by a possessive mother, have not yet known love. Djena, meanwhile, may still have a lot to learn, despite her confidence. Between love at first sight, jealousy and new experiences, our four friends are transformed and see their adventures crowned by the final of the Youth Challenge, where their friendship and their personal development triumph.
