Half of the 4 films screened during the event are French : Tomboy (2011, Céline Sciamma) and BPM (Beats Per Minute) (120 Battements par minute, 2017, Robin Campillo)
Tom Boy
A light and charming ode to the complicated relationship between one’s heart and body, TOMBOY sees 10-year-old Laure and 6-year-old Jeanne move to a new neighborhood during the summer holidays. With her Jean Seberg haircut and tomboy ways, Laure is immediately mistaken for a boy by the local kids and passes herself off as Michael – but as she would soon realise, the truth cannot always remain hidden and the games would have to end.
