Official synopsis

Léa, Jonas and Saxana go on a school trip. Filmed on the sidelines of the program organized by the adults, the three teenagers explore the strengths and weaknesses of their friendship. With kindness and finesse, Agnese Làposi and Benjamin Bucher capture the relational dynamic that plays out between these young protagonists. Their discussions – both tender and violent – shed light on theoretical reflections about gender, fat shaming, sexuality... When confronted with their other classmates, the trio soon shows weaknesses.
