Gender stereotypes are very powerful in our society, and in Celine Sciamma's sensitive film, we see the story of a young girl who prefers to identify as a boy. The film's strength is that it doesn't look from a forced viewpoint of trans-sexualism, but simply tells a tale of someone who doesn't fit in with the role she is expected to play. It's nicely judged, although quiet, and an interesting light on the way that, even as children, we put pressure on each other to conform, adapt and survive in what is sometimes a hostile world.
