Mi senti?

All I can say is that the kinds of family dysfunction depicted here is portrayed incredibly realistically, along with the full range of emotional reactions that accompany growing up in that sort of environment - including both the humour and rage needed to survive it. I laughed & became tearful at various points watching this series, & came to love each of these three characters. The character development was so well written, & acted, that it was not only entertaining but therapeutic! I would even go so far as to recommend it as a helpful tool for opening up discussion in educational and/or therapy contexts. Kudos to those who chose to tackle these difficult topics in their screenwriting, & who recognized that humour is often the only saving grace for retaining sanity in insane circumstances.

I have found this drama series to be so very, very beautiful, real, and refreshing. It follows the lives of three young women who are friends, each facing their own set of difficult circumstances and issues, whilst trying to support one another. The comedy and chemistry on screen is brilliant and lovely. I highly recommend watching this in the original Canadian French language with subtitles, rather than dubbing. The acting is too good to miss!

Funny, sad and well written 10/10 good Québec series

I was one of the best series I've seen on Netflix . It made me laugh also cry I was pure and real

I ran across this on Netflix and am so happy they brought this little Quebecois gem to the south. The acting is so sincere, so authentic and everyone in the show so vested in the screenplay with all their heart. The portrayal of poverty in Canada is not something often encountered on the screen and I have to admit it shook my image of Canada as a land of plenty with its honest examination of the visiousness of the poverty conundrum. The setting is a non-gentrified, poor and neglected neighborhood hidden behind the majestic beauty of Montreal, one a tourist likely would not encounter. To say the show is gritty is an understatement but despite the sadness of the landscape and the lives of the three protagonists the writers still manage to show the humor and grace required to survive such an environment. It's a beautiful show worthy of a larger audience.
