Synopsis

Ludovic is a young boy who can’t wait to grow up to be a woman. When his family discovers the little girl blossoming in him they are forced to contend with their own discomfort and the lack of understanding from their new neighbors. Their anger and impatience cave and Ludovic is sent to see a psychiatrist in the hopes of fixing whatever is wrong with him. A movie that addresses trans-gender and gender issues in general through the eyes of a child. —IMDb

É aquele tipo de filme que incomoda, no bom sentido.

Great discussion material on sexual identity, transgenderism and everything that surrounds it (family conflicts, lack of knowledge to deal with it, social repression, etc), but the movie is terribly cheesy and too colourful for my taste. I really appreciate its intentions since it's a relevant and rich subject, but I couldn't help myself from hating how it was conceived.
