Synopsis

In the middle of summer, Sasha's plans collapse. It is with a plastered leg and little enthusiasm that she faces the heat wave of July, confined in an ugly bungalow in the dreary suburbs. As a rift opens on her older sister's room, Léa enters a world that becomes, for her, an open door to adolescence and her emerging desires.
