Synopsis

Single mother Stéphanie shares everything with her daughter Léna — their passion for Belgian pop star Angèle, clothes, and even her diary... which Stéphanie sometimes edits for mistakes. But when they go to Angèle's concert with Léna’s best friend Carly, Stéphanie comes to realize just how much her “little queen” has grown up.

Program Note

The mother-daughter relationship is a timeless subject that continues to inspire countless stories in cinema. In this film, single mom Stéphanie dresses up for a special outing to attend a concert by Belgian singer Angèle with her teenage daughter Léna—only to find that Léna has already promised one of the two tickets to her close friend Carly. Through the bittersweet and humorous journey of a mother whose life revolves around her daughter, and a daughter who feels smothered by her mother’s overprotectiveness, this delightful comedy invites us to reflect on the meaning of family.
