Transcription

Plot

François, a dentist, and his wife Françoise, an illustrator, move to Paris and place their daughter Vic, aged 13, in one of the capital's best schools. Making friends, her free time becomes a whirl of discos, cinemas, and parties.

François is contacted by Vanessa, a former lover, who insists he spends another night with her and, when he tries to go home, rings Françoise to say he is in hospital. Seeing through this ruse, Françoise kicks François out, smashes up Vanessa's shop, and starts an affair with Éric, one of Vic's teachers, who is then punched in the street by François.

Trying to make sense of her parents' behaviour, Vic is helped by her great-grandmother Poupette, who encourages her in her relationship with Matthieu, the boy of her dreams, that results in a night together in a beach cabin. When François goes to pick Vic up from school, Matthieu insults him, not knowing who he is, and gets punched in the street.

Françoise discovers that she is pregnant and decides to reconcile with François. At her 14th birthday party, Vic is in the arms of Matthieu when she suddenly sees the boy of her dreams …..
