Not at first sight. Friends, playing, fooled Benoit, and he, against his will, had to make Aglaya a written proposal to become his girlfriend, internally fearing her consent, not imagining himself with a lame-footed girl with a twisted paralyzed hand. However, she gave the same written refusal, leaving the failed cavalier in a stupid position, rejected by a disabled person who seemed to consider walking with him for happiness, but it did not pass.
Natural bewilderment pushes the young man to clarify the relationship, making him a real scoundrel in the eyes of a classmate who did not deserve anything like this, giving the attacker an awkward but feasible rebuff, throwing the scoundrel into confusion about his success, because he had nothing with the girls, because they did not take him seriously, even if he was not a freak, like.
Here would be the end of the story, and Rudy Rosenberg (apparently the script is the work of his hands) had his own plan on this score, which allowed the parties to be again next to each other to get to know each other, accidentally but closer, in other circumstances finding in the other a reason for interest and an object of attraction, turning to meet in tacit agreement not only with themselves.
Pathfinder of adolescent psychology, the director reveals the motivation of his characters in the detail of their reactions, without forcing a long and strained search for what, why and why, definitely making it clear where and how trust and intimacy arise, which was not insignificantly facilitated by the actors involved in the main roles, using the subtleties of several to the best of provocative and equally piquant moments, where both word and view were important.
And, if for a professionally mature theater actress Geraldine Martino, whose far from teenage age shamelessly confuses even the all-knowing Internet, any challenge will be on the shoulder, then taken from the street “red”. Marc Faria Cholet just magically got to the right point, so it is not clear where he got what, but everything is clear with his broken boy, in which awakens not only an instinct, treacherously splashed out, but also a thought that also turned out to be outside, which made it certainly interesting to watch Benoit's growing anxiety, ending in panic, breaking through in the confused speech of a young man already resigned with humiliation, from which only a true friend could rid him.
