Pitch
Clementine’s life changes on the day she meets Emma, a girl with blue hair, who will be her
first true love. Together, they will learn how to share their desire, as well as facing the
prejudices and the disrespect of the others. A tender and sensible story.
Summary
Clementine is 15 years old. Everything in her life seems to works just fine: she has good friends,
and one of the school’s prettiest boys is really interested in her.
However, when she makes eye contact with a blue-haired girl passing by through a square, all
her certainties start to tremble. Dreaming of her and unable to hide this new feeling, Clementine
starts to question herself and the nature of her desire. Getting to accept it, while living among
the prejudices of her family and peers, will be a long and harsh coming-of-age path.
But a chance of finding herself arrives on the day she meets again Emma, that girl on the square.
Their falling in love will be a common struggle to accept who they are, and being accepted.
Their story will be just as profound, happy, and sad, as any great love story.
