CLEVES

15 year-old Solange lives in Clèves, a little village in Haute-Savoie. Her mother is depressive, her father frequently absent. Left to her own devices, it was the summer she discovered her body and with it, a strange new power. Chaotically, on the threshold of emancipation, Solange confronts her desire.
