Plot
In the quiet tranquility of a rustic French village, "Lovers" unravels a compelling coming-of-age tale. At its heart is Marc, a 15-year-old boy, who finds himself tangled in a complex web of emotions for his older half-sister, Vivien, who returns home after a lengthy eight-year absence. Marc, besotted with the allure of Vivien's independence and freewheeling lifestyle, secretly shadows her every move, vicariously absorbing each life lesson she unintentionally imparts.
As the story unfolds, Vivien transitions from a figure of fascination to a poignant mirror reflecting a distorted self-image. Marc discerns her promiscuity as a smokescreen, a feeble attempt to camouflage her crumbling self-esteem. This revelation urges Marc to break free from his sister's shadow, fostering a budding sense of self-reliance and personal identity.
Their unconventional perspectives on love further twist the narrative. While Vivien struggles to assert boundaries with her admirers, Marc unveils a startling truth about his own preferences – he finds himself attracted to boys. "Lovers" thus paints a rich tapestry of self-discovery, independence, and the myriad forms of love, in an unassuming French hamlet.
