Synopsis Odile, a fragile mother in search of love and attention, gradually finds meaning in her life when she convinces herself to support her young son in his transition into a girl, thus getting empathy, recognition and fame from her community until becoming an Instagram starlet. The fear of being nobody is strong, and so is the need to belong, both trapping Odile in a vicious circle.
