As a young girl living in an institution for girls where the nights are restless, Iphis decides to accompany her godfather who is going on a cruise on a yacht. To avoid the problems that would be caused by the presence of a young woman on board, Iphis, dressed as a boy, pretends to be the nephew of the man who is actually her godfather. Seeing her advances rejected by her uncle, Iphis, thanks to her disguise, seduces in turn the sailor, the son of a friend, a pretty girl hired as second mate and the real sailor. This removes all scruples from the uncle for the rest of the voyage.
Intergenerational friendships and community can be so powerful, and this was a great example.
Some moments of the series are intense and ends on a cliff-hanger that will have you yearning for a second season.
This theatrical sequel based on the PAW Patrol series features voice actors of color in this action-packed adventure.
Overall, Matthias & Maxime doesn't reinvent this romantic concept. But it also doesn't need to. Dolan weaves a story of love, friendship, and life that is both realistic and bittersweet. The film is nuanced and sensual in a way we don't get to see often with LGBTQ characters. It's a film that we can celebrate.
