Laetitia Dosch gives a wildly funny performance as the red-headed heroine, Paula, whose audacity knows no bounds.

Is the woman whose adult capabilities are a thin veneer over hysteria a rebellious threat to patriarchal expectations, or a perfect product thereof?

This is a refreshingly invigorating and unvarnished character study, thrumming with anxious life. Bravo!

As it stands, though, Serraille’s film is a missed opportunity...
