Description:

In this heartwarming coming-of-age tale set against the idyllic backdrop of rural France, a teenaged boy from the city is introduced to life among the rolling fields and lush landscapes as he spends the summer months with his estranged father's family. His new environment proves challenging and complicated, particularly in the dynamic between himself and his stepmother who struggles to connect with him. As the summer progresses, the young man slowly learns the importance of patience, understanding, and family bonds amidst the beautiful chaos of this unfamiliar world. The film masterfully delves into themes of identity, belonging, and forgiveness as it follows the transformative journey of a boy growing into his own skin, surrounded by the love and support of those who care for him despite their initial differences.
