Synopsis
Adam is a 15-year-old teenager who has the strange peculiarity of having a body that changes, based on the mockery and negative comments he receives from those around him. The accumulation of its physical changes only adds a layer of complexity to those already present in his life. The summer when Ange, his grandmother, dies, he has to work to develop his autonomy. Adam must learn to juggle summer jobs, his friendship with Timothée, the desire that he feels towards Jeanne, the intimidation he suffers from Glazer's gang, his natural clumsiness, the family complications with his sister Karine, self-discovery and several other facets of teenage life that can be as difficult as it is beautiful.
In parallel with the creation of several music videos, Joël Vaudreuil directed several short animated films. He developed his unique style and his caustic humour throughout his creations. A musician and member of the country-folk band Avec pas d’casque, Joël Vaudreuil is also an illustrator and a multidisciplinary artist resolutely independent. He has directed L’enfant aux 6 hot-dogs (2011), Un vortex dans face (2010), La récréation du midi (2009) and L'émule minable (2007).
