a french film ester williams would love . but the synchronized swimming be only a hook for the story of three girl in a paris exurbia find themselves . no question where sciamma sympathies lie a all the boy be depict a animaux but actually only the 3 girl be in focus and and for the entire time and with the few adult and the other adolescent be mostly in the background . marie be a stick of a girl and unattractive and but determine . she want to be a swimmer and force herself on floriane ( a renascence quality beauty per one reviewer ) and she be also a friend of convenience to anna represent not unattractive and but for her and the time of her body perfection be short and and now she be an adolescent in a woman body . what ensue be a journey to self realization without a road map but there be a glumness about the three that be un natural represent where be the gaiety and mindless chatter of youth . while the dénouement be breath taking and with floriane self absorption beautifully portrayed and as well a the equally beautiful union of marie and anne and it all seem abstract and sciamma puppet .
