Keeper

I have to say first that I had huge difficulties getting in this movie due to the way it deals with the choice the 2 teen parents, but also their family, social councellors - not to mention one of the teen mother has been in that situation. I don't think this is realistic and that none would make the teens consider what really awaits them.

That pitfall crossed, I have to say the movie is quite good by its depiction of the pregnancy, and the events and changes of life linked to that. All considered, I'd rate it at 6/10.

It is sweet in its portray of youth, naive and also hard on the effects of the changes one has to go through to become an adult. It shows how important some decisions are and how where you come from will determine your references of right or wrong, and will shape what hurts you and what just annoys with no further consequence. The kids perform impressively, with an apparent natural connection. Everything in the movie means something, every scene has a consequence and a cause, and be sure everything you see and hear will shape the outcome. Guillaume Senez is also a very sensitive director, and often enough the frame will unfold another detail you have to get. There is indeed a more than interesting male perceptive over teenage pregnancy, but the movie also brings rather strong secondary characters with truth and solemnity.
