CGiii Comment

Quite, quite brilliant.

Rather than focusing on the young adult cross-dressing and screwing with the minds of everyone else, Ma Vie tells the story from the beginning...from the point of view of the child - and, it's full of fantasy, colour...and, grief.

This film presents the anguish [and the humour] that the child and those around him feel.

There are too few films with this amount of intelligence and humility.

Simply, a WONDERFUL experience to behold.
