- A monkey'?

- It can be anything.

He was my cuddly toy

when I was little.

He's called Poppy...

I gave it to my brother

when he left.

He photographed Poppy

everywhere,

wherever he went

and sent me the photos.

Let's try and sleep.

We gotta be 'with it' in the morning.

How're things?

They say I'm not ready.

They always say that.

No, physically.

They say it's too small.

That's just to scare us.

Anyway,

they're scared of everything:

Growing old, dying...

It's life-of-sh*t. com.

My mother can't

talk to me anymore.

I haven't told mine.

- What can we do for Clem'?

- She can stay at my place.

No, it's too risky.

We gotta fend for ourselves.

We gotta decide.

We'll get a room

so we can all stay together.

Clem can stay there.

Maybe we could organize

one of those shacks at Etel'?

There's nobody down there

in winter.

Great idea.

We'll say 2 o'clock

tomorrow afternoon then.

And bring everything you can

to be comfortable.

- Is The Goth pregnant'?

- Yes... by Batman.

There it is.

That's it'?

Clem... even has ocean views.

Yes... and more.

- That one with the sand?

- Yeah.

It's small.

Were there people here,

before'?

Yes, I guess so.

Will you give me a hand, Clem.

Damn!

Look, you got a tooth brush.

- Pretty good, eh'?

- Not bad. Stinks a bit.

We'll give it a spray.

Then we could put on

a bit of music, too.

Good. We made it.

Here, Camille.

Kiss.

Kiss.

I'm happy to say

they're worried.

You don't need them.

Isn't that OK'?

- It's cold in here.

It'll warm up, Clem.

I'll get you a radiator.

Don't you want

to stay with me'?

I'll stay.

She zoomed in.

It lasted an awful long time.

It was horrible.

What's it mean'?

She wants me

to take some sort of liquid.

It's probably nothing.

Stop talking about it.

It's obvious it's not you.

Leave me be.

We'll stay with her.

I'll call Clem.

Mummy'?

- How's your belly going?

- How's it going?

After 3 months you girls will

be at each other's throats

At 6 years old

the kids will be bashing heads in,

and at 14 they'll be shooting up.

It's not gonna work.

No, that's not true...

it won't be like that.

We're really, really united.

You're saying that

'cos it's just the start.

I'd like to do

something worthwhile, too.

And I find myself shooting at guys

who've done nothing to me.

In the end there's

nobody to help you.

You're on your own.

It's like we kept on growing

at the same pace.

What I've seen and what you've done

have taken 10 years from us.

You regret it'?

- Do YOU regret it'?

- Don't think so.

I don't want you to go back.

Stretch your head back

on the floatie.

So relax.

We breathe in

at the same time...

and give ourselves up

to the water.

Relax.

And walk slowly.

I'll give you another floatie.

Put your head like this,

on the floatie that's

under your partners knees

There should be three.

It's OK!

The test is OK!

Everything's normal!

Shh! Not so loud please!

Let's go on...

Shh! Ladies!

Don't think you can

do what you like!

That's enough of that!

Right. Out!

That's it!

People talk about the 14 pregnant

teenagers from the same school.

Today we must ask ourselves:

Is the current crisis behind

the decision of these girls?

Although during the post-war period,

Lorient was a town of the future,

the city has slowly sunk:

The fisheries crisis...

it focuses...

We're taking the photo...

smile at the camera!

Could the young lady in the first row

button her vest?

- Yes. Close it properly.

- I can't.

OK then

Could you pass the placard

to your friend'?

Nearly there...

Could the two blondes...

look at the camera.

Smile,

you're happy to be here...

and say... cheese!

CHEEEESE!

Great... thank you.

Next class.

'Bye.

Good morning parents.

I'm here to give you an update

on the situation.

As far as we know, we are up to

and you aren't doing anything?

You're responsible.

You're head of this school.

I'm not personally responsible

for the private lives

of these students.

No more than you, anyway.

Like you,

I do not understand

what these kids want.

You're out of your depth!

What are your thoughts

on the matter?

I've proposed to install

a prophylactic dispenser

Next we'll be

renting hotel rooms.

As for the pill...

that's a medication...

and up to the parents.

A prophylactic dispenser...!

Well..

Some sleep around

like others smoke...

but they won't be

selling pot at school.

I'll be asking teachers

to increase control,

conduct more written tests,

and focus on work.

- That's just avoiding the problem.

I'll expel the ringleaders...

maybe only one of the girls.

You'll get rid of Camille'?

If it will scare off others,

why not'?

Camille, this has got to stop.

The headmaster wants to expel you.

So what'?

Stop it... we both know

it wasn't all your decision.

But at the start, you were shattered

it had happened to you.

Why encourage the others

to do the same'?

Didn't you want to be alone'?

- Were you frightened'?

- Whatever you like.

Yes, at first I freaked out.

But now I know why I did it.

And I'm really happy

for my friends.

I was the first, that's all.

- He only needed one of us.

- You think you're being sacrificed?

You just don't realize...

You're training

a stable of girls.

Some of them

won't come out of it well...

Clementine, for example.

Have you adults

really thought about it'?

Have you suggested

anything else

to any of these girls?

We're suggesting

you should get an education

for a better life.

Do you have children'?

I take care of everyone eases.

Excuse me...

will it bother you if I smoke?

You know it's wrong...

It's disgusting... lying to us.

The stupid thing

is to live your life

and not realize

it's a load of crap.

We're right

to try something else

I'm glad I came.

I had some doubts

but now I don't have any.

I gotta pee

- See both'?

- Yes.

Can I see'?

Wait, I'm taking you both.

Wait.

It only moves there.

Let's see.

Hang on.

- Or there'?

- There!

Damn!

It's the navel.

Oh no, it's a monster!

Oh, no.

I'm getting bigger and fatter

at the same time... it's wild!

- Rose.

- Yes, nice.

Corny.

- Cassandra.

- Too posh. Cassandra Fourier.

I always wanted to call

my daughter Cassandra,

but now I'm considering

Cheyenne.

Cheyenne rocks.

But if it's a boy,

it'll be Theo or Jean-Baptiste.

No... that's boring!

Otherwise there's Judas

That's cute.

"Judas"...

I like Charles

Charles!... I'd feel like

I had an old man in my belly.

Or Leo then.

But I said Theo.

Leo's too much alike.

Too bad, I like Leo.

And Geo'? Theo, Leo, Geo.

The three little pigs.

You're a pain in the ass, Julia.

I want to take

driving lessons... you too.

Probably Florence.

You're like all the others.

- That bother you now'?

- Yes.

What bothers you is that

Tom might be in love with me.

Stop it, Julia.

You're jealous, that's it.

- I don't need anyone.

- Yes... us.

Stop it.

Mind your own business!

You're not drawing anything'?
