An episode of Tous les Garçons et les filles de leur âge, a series of portraits of French youth culture in the period between the early 1960s and the late 1980s, produced by ARTE. Claire Denis drew inspiration from her own childhood and, together with Anne Wiazemsky, wrote the story of a young woman (Alice Houri) who, together with her brother (Grégoire Colin) and her friend (Jessica Tharaud), goes to a party to explore the volatility of social and sexual relationships. “I hated parties, but I was excited about the importance of music in the series. When I was an adolescent, my records and record player were my secret. Alone in my room, I listened to the Animals, the Yardbirds, Ronnie Bird. The idea of using their music was a powerful motivation to make the film”
