Celine Sciamma's debut is a cucumber-cool ode to girlhood (incidentally, the title of her third feature, which I am eagerly awaiting) which reminded me a lot of Lisa Aschan's 'She Monkeys'. The chemistry between the girls is razor-sharp a la Ozon and the sexual tension is built wonderfully. It rightfully made Adele Haenel a star in France, and it looks like her breakout role is in 'The Combattants' - coming soon!
