A delicate, ambiguous coming-of-age study of a teenage boy's infatuation with an older woman, told with intimate handheld immediacy and emotional restraint.

Benoit turns 13 and develops an intense crush on his godmother, Marion. As they lie on beaches in the summer, she humors him by talking about the mysteries of women.
