This short film, set in France in 1968, reveals a world unknown to many. The protagonist, Marianne, magnificently interpreted by Nina Mazodier is a teenager who is pregnant and is hospitalized in a kind of transient asylum with many other girls her age, who suffer from the same "evil": an unplanned pregnancy. In the formal, we must emphasize the curious quality that all the characters, and there are many, are women, if we except babies. It is true that the subject lends itself, but we also think that it is an intelligent decision of the director, condemning the offspring to the parents of the creatures that the girls are gestating.

Nina Mazodier
Kirpianuscus30 April 2020
Her performance is admirable as precise, delicate reflection of a dark reality. Her Marianne gives the measure of early and illegitimated motherhood, about a profound hypocrisy and about a form of friendship, fear, solide decision, fall and the fundamental change of life. A film about truth. Admirable in each detail.
