Tomboy

Brisk, precisely observed, and bracingly non-preachy in its examination of a very tricky subject.
- Jon Frosch, The Atlantic
Tomboy"" is tender and affectionate.""
- Roger Ebert, Chicago SunTimes
Le film impressionne par l'écart entre la simplicité de l'histoire et la complexité des questions soulevées

Synopsis

Laure is 10 years old. Laure is a tomboy. Upon arriving in a new neighborhood, she lets Lisa and her crowd believe that she is a boy. Truth or dare? Dare. Laure pretends to be 'Michael,' a boy like the others…different enough to get the attention of Lisa who falls in love with him. Laure takes advantage of her new identity as if the end of the summer would never reveal her unsettling secret.
