Spect.Viewers find 'Tomboy' a thought-provoking and sensitive exploration of gender identity through the eyes of a young girl posing as a boy. The film's minimalistic style and the powerful performance of the lead actress are highly praised. However, some found the documentary-like approach a bit jarring and the ending unsatisfactory. The portrayal of childhood innocence intertwined with cruelty adds a poignant layer to the narrative, making it a compelling watch for many.

Synopsis
Ten-year-old Laure isn't like most girls. She prefers football to dolls and sweaters to dresses. When Laure and her family move to a new neighbourhood, local girl Lisa mistakes Laure for a boy. Indulging in this exciting new identity, Laure becomes Mickaël, and so begins a summer of long sunny afternoons, playground games and first kisses. Yet with the school term fast approaching, and with suspicions arising amongst friends and family, Laure must face up to an uncertain future.

Incroyable, et tous le monde jouent si bien
J’aime trop l’histoire de ce film mais je hais la fin car elle ne represente pas la réalité

Un film où on perçoit la cruauté naïve des enfants envers ce que les adultes considèrent comme différent.
la daronne elle veut pas accepter sa transidentité quand même
