Besties

Summer in a Paris suburb. Nedjma roams the streets with her friends; the gang is like her second family. When she sees Zina, the new girl in the neighborhood, for the first time, she feels directly attracted to her. The only problem is that Zina belongs to the hostile clique. Nedjma is torn between her loyalty to her friends and her desire for Zina, which grows with every night they spend together in secret. Nedjma must decide what she actually wants to fight for.

In a rousing way and at eye level, Marion Desseigne Ravel tells a modern and young love story that is authentic and always close to its characters. Lina El Arabi and Esther Rollande shine as passionate lovers who fight during the day and lie in each other's arms at night. A real pearl of young queer cinema from France.
