Water Lilies

Synopsis

Teenage Marie is torn between her loyalty to her awkward friend Anne and her growing attraction to Floriane, the sexy captain of the synchronized swimming team. The stunningly assured feature debut from one of young French cinema’s most powerful forces, featuring the great Adèle Haenel’s breakthrough performance as Floriane, Water Lilies catches three teenage girls in the painful stage of finding themselves divided between hustling into maturity and holding on to childhood. Though Sciamma’s direction is wonderfully restrained, this engaging tour de force perfectly captures the messiness of teen love and friendship.
