A controversial film maker, Cathérine Breillat has a stake in depicting sexuality with odd means, provoking emotions which are not necessarily shock and refusal, but simply different to what we expect of a film that deals with sex and sexuality in general. Une vraie jeune fille follows a prepubescent girl about to enter teenagehood and its realms of sexual self-discovery. Without a real chance to explore her budding interests yet, she dives into her dreams and gives liberty to ideas and surreal scenes full of creative exoticism that could soon happen in her future.
