Plots(1)
Maxime (Kacey Mottet Klein) and Mélanie (Galatea Bellugi) are a typical teenage couple. Like most lovestruck fifteen-year-olds, they can't get enough of each other and they think they'll be together forever. But when Mélanie becomes pregnant, their worlds are rocked. Maxime and Mélanie remain committed to one another as they explore their options with care and caution. Maxime, a budding football star, is torn between his dream of playing professionally and his unexpected desire to be a father. Mélanie, the daughter of a single woman who was only a teenager herself when Mélanie was born, is more conflicted — but, basking in the glow of early pregnancy and young love, she gains confidence from Maxime. Together, they make the decision to keep the baby, and for a while they really believe they can make it work. But as they're pulled in different directions by their parents, their own ambitions, and their desire to be normal teenagers, the reality of their decision begins to sink in.

I have been thinking all along that these kids are actually to blame for all their troubles. They are fifteen and trying to have a relationship. The relationship is forced because Mélanie is pregnant but very determined to make it happen. What did they expect? I wasn’t rooting for them and I didn’t think the film has any kind of message at all. Their decision was simply reckless and it destroyed few human lives who may have had hope, but preferred to give it up because they were bored with their youth and thought that being adult is cool. It is not, trust me! Life flies by so fast and suddenly you are retired and glad that you made it so far.
