Summer break, sex debut, and ghosts in a spooky drama about first love.

The teenager Bastien spends lazy days at a summer cabin by a lake in Canada. He falls in love with Chloe, who is a few years older, and out of boredom she responds the shy youth’s advances. On unsteady legs, Bastien is led into a dizzying and multifaceted summer romance, complete with sneaking tokes and stolen bottles of wine. But at the edge of the lively nights, an ominous darkness broods – is there an ounce of truth in Chloe’s ghost stories about the haunted lake? Charlotte Le Bon’s debut is an impressive balancing act between a fine-tuned coming-of-age story and an eerie drama: a film that leaves a lasting effect.
