DESCRIPTION: Gabrielle is an intelligent teenager, navigating the social circles at her school and feeling disconnected from her father. One night she meets, or rather overhears, Étienne: they are both in the hospital emergency room, getting stitches. He cut himself when he was a bit drunk, and she cuts herself on purpose. Presented without judgment and very much in sympathy with Gabrielle (well-acted by Ariane Trepanier), this beautifully made but frank film shows two people who don’t need to explain themselves to each other. Viewer discretion advised.
