Clara's Summer

2004 · 85 min

A tender, sunlit coming-of-age story that captures the awkward thrill of first desires and the sting of young rejection with quiet honesty.

Overview
Clara goes to summer camp with her best friend Zoé. Far from their parents, they hope to make love to a boy for the first time. After Zoé rejects the advances by Sébastien, because she finds him too forward, she returns to Clara and declares her love. But Clara rejects the advances of Zoé - and meets the sulphurous Sonia.
