Synopsis:
Suzanne is 16. She is bored with people of her age. Every day on her way to high school, she passes a theatre. There, she meets an older man, and becomes obsessed with him. Despite their age difference, they find in each other an answer to their ennui and fall in love. But Suzanne is afraid she’s missing out on life – that life of a 16-year-old, which she had struggled so much to enjoy in the same way as her peers.
Director’s Biography:
Suzanne Lindon was born in 2000 in Paris. At 15, she enrolled at the prestigious French high school Henri IV, and at the same time began writing “Spring Blossom”. Lindon graduated high school with honours in 2018, and decided to take a one-year preparatory course in sketching before joining l’Ecole Nationale Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs of Paris. It’s in 2019, the summer of her 19th birthday, that she decided to dive into preparation for her first feature film as both director and lead actress.
