The story

What Is My Life in Pink About?

The premise of My Life in Pink without spoilers.

Ludovic, a six‑year‑old, is convinced she was born a girl and awaits a miracle to correct the “mistake.” Instead, she meets rejection, isolation and guilt as family, friends and neighbors react harshly. Their suburban prejudice strains bonds, testing love and loyalty. Alain Berliner’s debut, awarded a Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film, explores difference, prejudice and a child’s faith in miracles.
