Reviews
Starring Adèle Haenel, Louise Blachère, Pauline Acquart

Presented on 35mm! Over a sweltering summer of friendship, crushes, and new experiences, three members of a teenage synchronized swimming team are drawn into an intense game of emotional chess as they discover the power and agony of desire. With precise, mesmerizing style, this provocative tale of adolescence and queer awakening announced Céline Sciamma (Portrait of a Lady on Fire, Petite Maman) as a major talent.

Bryn Mawr College professors Edwige Crucifix, French and Francophone Studies, and Julien Suaudeau, Director of Film Studies, will join us for a post-film conversation.
