She changes her name, her style, drops out of school and starts stealing to be accepted into the group. When her home situation becomes unbearable, Marieme seeks solace in an older man who promises her money and protection.

Tomboy
The movie uniquely addresses the issue of gender identification. An important subject, but handled in a simple yet profound way.
Petite Maman
Director Céline Sciamma ('Portrait of a Lady on Fire') returns to bring a story with a child's eye - something already seen in the brilliant 'Tomboy' from 2011. Sciamma always seeks to explore narratives focused on women and this is the great differential of her works, which bring an authenticity and delicacy. 'Petite Maman' is a sensitive film about grief with the perspective of Nelly, an eight-year-old girl who has just lost her grandmother. One day her mother, Marion, disappears and she meets a girl, also named Marion. Gradually she discovers that the child is actually the younger version of her own mother. In a very poetic way, Céline Sciamma speaks about time travel while showing us how grief is different for each person.
Portrait of a Lady on Fire
This provocative French drama takes place in a time of greater modesty and social controls, but that does not prevent the blossoming of a forbidden love between a young bride and the artist who must portray her in a painting. Thus, 'Portrait de la jeune fille en feu' mixes an excellent period reconstruction, beautiful photography and an intense romance - which only gains with the performances of Adèle Haenel ('The Unknown Girl') and Noémie Merlant ('Curiosa'). Another highlight in the filmography of director and screenwriter Céline Sciamma, who has already signed productions such as 'Tomboy', 'Girls' and 'Lírios d'Água'.
