Composed flawlessly with cinematography and narrative structure that mirrors the completely loose and free world of the children until the last act when Laure, played by Zoé Héran who gives a powerhouse performance, has to face the consequences of joining society and abiding by its harsh rules. Even with this loose structure and camera the film is incredibly precise, making perfect use of its 82 minutes. Céline Sciamma firmly places herself as a very strong auteur coming out of France (following her debut Water Lillies; an incredibly gorgeous and calculated film that is a much harsher look at young-adult relations) with the talent and sincereness needed to be able to explore children/young adults.
