( Jeune & Jolie ), a 2013 French erotic drama directed by François Ozon, is a provocative and stylistically restrained exploration of teenage identity and sexual discovery. Plot Overview
The film follows 17-year-old (Marine Vacth) over the course of four seasons and four songs. After an emotionally detached first sexual experience during a summer vacation, Isabelle returns to Paris and begins a secret life as a high-end call girl. Operating under the pseudonym "Léa," she meets older men in hotel rooms, not out of financial necessity—she comes from a middle-class background—but for reasons the film leaves intentionally ambiguous. Her double life is shattered when a regular client dies of a heart attack during one of their trysts, leading the police to her doorstep and forcing a confrontation with her devastated family.
