Synopsis
For 16 year-old LUCIE, an ordinary teenager, the only thing that gives meaning to her life is her worship of a withdrawn and inaccessible female pop star. Her walls and the pages of her diary are covered with pictures of her idol. This is how she escapes her dull existence in a small French town, where she lives with her mother, who is obsessed by TV personalities. Until the day a chance occurrence allows the young fan to become part of her idol’s entourage. From then on she becomes involved, quite innocently, in a passionate relationship with the star of her dreams, whose happiness she is totally devoted to furthering. But to try and patch up her idol’s relationship with a man who has ditched her, and without whom she can’t live, Lucie conceives of an outrageous project…
