THE TOMBOY (France) 2011 Dir: Celine Sciamma

Run time: 84 mins Cert: (UK) U
Cast: Jeanne Disson, Malonn Levana, Mathieu Demy, Sophie Cattani, Zoe Heran

Sciamma’s new film is a small-scale piece, directed with a light touch. Zoé Héran plays Laure, a 10-year-old girl who arrives with her family one summer in a new town. Laure is a tomboy, with short hair and boys' clothes.

One local girl, Lisa (Disson) thinks she's a boy. Laure plays along with the misunderstanding. Her younger sister is also greatly enamoured of the fantasy of a tough, protective older brother. An interesting miniature.
