Details

Une jeune femme tente de se décrire, se présentant sous un jour idyllique : celui qu’on attend d’elle. La narration visuelle raconte cependant une tout autre histoire, illustrant avec une force poignante la charge anxiogène de l’hyperperformance et de la course au bonheur. Un film à la fois drôle et touchant, et surtout, profondément humain.
