Abdellatif Kechiche : 2013
Blue is the Warmest Colour
At 15, Adèle doesn't question it: a girl goes out with boys. For the adolescent, questions about identity are ultra-relevent and Adèle, a school-girl from a working-class family in the suburbs of Lille, is of an age when the appetite for love and sexuality awakens. With a fondness for literature in an environment in which culture is virtually non-existent in conversations among girl-friends and at family dinners lulled by TV, she soon feels uncomfortable in an adventure with a boy. Adèle's life changes the night she meets Emma, a girl with blue hair who unexpectedly invites herself into her erotic dreams, and who will allow her to discover desire, to assert herself as a woman and as an adult. In front of others, Adèle grows, seeks herself, loses herself, finds herself. Abdellatif Kechiche's fifth feature was winner of the Palme d'Or at Festival de Cannes 2013.
