At the end of the 1980s, Stella, Victor, Adèle and Etienne are 20 years old. They take the entrance exam to the famous acting school created by Patrice Chéreau and Pierre Romans at the Théâtre des Amandiers in Nanterre. They set out in life and in their early career. Along the way, they will learn, act, love, fear, live to the fullest and also experience their first tragedies.
In this autobiographical film selected in Cannes’s Official Competition, Bruni Tedeschi revisits her youth and a period of big social changes as she herself, played by an exceptional Nadia Tereszkiewicz, learns to be in the world and be in theatre while living through several tragedies around her.
