L'enfant d'eau (1995)
The 1995 French film "L'enfant de l'eau" is a beautiful and moving story of a young girl's journey of self-discovery. The film follows the story of a young girl named Marie (played by Virginie Ledoyen) who is sent to a convent school in the French countryside. While there, she meets a young man named Jean (played by Guillaume Depardieu) and the two quickly become close friends.
As the story progresses, Marie and Jean's relationship begins to take on a more romantic tone. The two share intimate moments, including a passionate kiss in the woods, and Marie begins to explore her own sexuality. The film also features a number of scenes that explore the physical and emotional aspects of teenage sexuality.
The film is not explicit in its portrayal of sexuality, but it does provide a realistic and honest look at the struggles of young people as they come to terms with their own sexuality. The film also touches on the themes of love, loss, and the power of friendship.
Overall, "L'enfant de l'eau" is a beautiful and moving film that explores the complexities of teenage sexuality in a sensitive and thoughtful way. It is a must-see for anyone interested in exploring the subject of teenage sexuality.
The two main characters engage in a somewhat sexual scene. The 12-year-old girl (which is played by a 14-year-old actress) and the 20-year-old 'mentally challenged' male character (played by a 29-year-old actor) are together in the kitchen after together having washed his hair. The girl initially kisses the male character's face in a 'playful' and non-sexual manner, but then becomes serious and kisses him once (passionately) on the mouth.
At another point in the movie the girl muses (while writing in her journal) whether 'she will ever become a woman' given their situation of being stranded for such a long time on an island in the middle of the ocean. The scene can be a bit uncomfortable to watch, especially given that the male character has the mental capacity of a 5-year-old. The forced nature of the scene is also troubling. Nothing happens further between these characters.
Immediately after this she proceeds to sit on his lap while they embrace in a hug of sorts, and at this point she begins to rock/hump against him in a clearly sexual manner. The 'mentally challenged' character does not understand what is happening, and does not encourage or reciprocate this action. His face shows discomfort, and he moans in a manner that makes it clear he is not comfortable with what is transpiring. Near the end of the scene he says "c'est mal" ("it's bad"), but the girl continues her actions unabated. The scene ends (non-verbally) with what could be construed as the male character reaching an unwanted orgasm. At this point he whimpers/cries somewhat, and while holding the towel against his groin, rushes out of the house and jumps into the ocean. (Afterwards swimming away.)
