I have an ambivalent attitude towards the film.
On the one hand, this is a pretty easy and fun children's movie. It has an incredibly attractive atmosphere of the late 70s. It is very sunny and summery.
The main character is a 10-year-old boy who goes skateboarding in the Parisian Trocadero park every day. He has friends and a wise, beautiful mother.
During one of his walks, he meets a girl and falls in love with her. But her parents are quite respectable people. He wants them to like him so that he can spend more time with the girl.
But on the other hand, in this film it is not very clear why he and his mother live alone, even in a fairly decent house. His mother have a huge American SUV and she works as a photographer. Probably her job is highly paid. She spends a lot of time with her son, they do yoga. She is the quintessential free independent woman of her time. But in the film, it's taken for granted. It is unclear to me whether this is a look at the crisis of the mononuclear family and the consequences of the hippie movement and students of 68, or an assessment of the role of the mother in modern conditions in principle. In short, I would love to watch a movie about how this woman does it all. In the end, she is played by Annie Duperey and I started watching the movie mainly because of this fact.
