THE FAM

by Frédéric Baillif

synopsis

A group of teenage girls have been placed in a residential care home with social workers. This forced “family” experience creates unexpected tensions and intimacies. An incident triggers a chain of over-reactions. The fall-out reveals the weaknesses of the retrograde juvenile system, as well as the demons that haunt 'La Mif’. A social drama, mirroring our ill-mannered morals.
