Drama

Liane, 19 years old, daring and fiery, lives with her mother and little sister under the dusty sun of Fréjus in the South of France. Obsessed with beauty and the need to become “someone”, she sees reality TV as her opportunity to be loved... Fate smiles upon her when she auditions for “Miracle Island”.

VIBE

This sun-drenched drama pulses with the raw ambition and yearning of youth. It's a spirited, vulnerable exploration of identity and the seductive pull of media culture, wrapped in a naturalistic, character-driven aesthetic. Feel the heat of aspiration and the quiet desperation for validation.
