On the final day of school, Marieme befriends Lady and her girls, forming a passionate quartet united by Rihanna and rebellion against the racism that limits their opportunities. Celine Sciamma’s film explodes out the gate in an American football match and – like Marieme (or Vic as Lady renames her) – never stops moving and defying expectations.
