Synopsis (fr)
À 17 ans, dans son village des Vosges, Léo et ses amis se passionnent pour le maquillage et le drag, passions qui ne sont pas au goût de son grand frère Jules, qui craint d’être la risée de sa bande de potes. Le soir de la scène ouverte du village, contre l’avis de son frère, Léo monte sur scène habillé en drag queen...
Synopsis (en)
In their small village, seventeen-year-old Léo and his friends are crazy about makeup and drag. Jules, Léo's older brother, doesn't share his sibling's passion, fearing he'll be the laughing stock among his gang of pals. The night of the village's "open theater" event, against Jules' advice, Léo walks on the stage dressed in drag.
