Les filles ne savent pas nager / Girls Can't Swim. 2000.
 FR. Lise, une jeune adolescente qui rêve de partir à la mer, est en plein deuil familial. Elle n'a d'autre échappatoire que la correspondance qu'elle entretient avec Gwen, sa meilleure amie. Celle-ci vit en Bretagne au sein d'une famille de marins pêcheurs en pleine crise. Au fur et à mesure de leur correspondance, les deux jeunes filles vont s'apercevoir qu'elles n'ont plus rien à se dire. Une rupture d'autant plus violente que l'attachement était grand.
EN. Girls Can't Swim (French: Les Filles ne savent pas nager) is a 2000 French coming of age drama film. It was first shown at the 2000 Montreal FilmFestival.
Even though they grew up in opposite parts of France, Gwen and Lise are best friends and spend every summer vacation together on the Brittany coast where Gwen lives and Lise's family has a summer home. But this summer is different because Lise's family isn't going on vacation for reasons that she won't explain to Gwen. Sick of her parents bickering about money and missing her bosom buddy, Gwen finds a boyfriend and mingles with some horny out-of-towners. Now fifteen, she's discovered that summer can be fun even if Lise isn't there. Then suddenly, Lise shows up at Gwen's house uninvited to stay for a couple of weeks. The following days are filled with unexpected surprises, causing the girls to reevaluate the importance of their friendship and the nature of their teenage anxieties.
