Yes, But...
Directed by Yves Lavandier
Produced by Sofica Sofinergie 5, France 2 Cinéma
A coming-of-age comedy-drama about a troubled teenager learning to navigate family dysfunction, romantic pressure, and self-doubt through therapy and personal growth.
At age 17, Eglantine is troubled by a number of things. Her argumentative parents comprise an absentee and philandering father and an overprotective, occasionally alcoholic mother. Her boyfriend Sébastien is a couple of years older; he's ready, but she isn't. Frequent furtive visits to her therapist help her to see that these issues are not 'problems', but 'difficulties', which she has the strength to overcome.
