Mr. and Mrs. Fabre don't think much about their seven-year-old son trying on his mother's clothes or his insistence on growing his hair out long. Until the day they host a party in their new suburban neighborhood, and Ludovic comes out on the porch dressed as a pink princess! Some of the neighbors are colleagues of Mr. Fabre, including his boss, whose son Jerome goes to school with Ludovic. Things grow increasingly uncomfortable as Ludovic develops an intense romantic identification with his favorite cartoon, TV and video characters - all girls - and sets up a mock marriage with Jerome. He innocently tries to convince everyone he knows that he is really a girl, that his being born a boy was a mistake that will someday be fixed by doctors. The neighbors grow distant and defiant. Ludovic is excluded at school and forced to see a psychiatrist. Even his two older brothers reject him - only his sister and grandmother are understanding. As society condemns the boy's budding homosexuality, his parents suffer under the strain and grow increasingly intolerant of his behavior. But when Ludovic is physically attacked, they can't help but reconsider their attitude. The judgment of their close-minded community is inescapable, though, and Mr. Fabre is fired from his job. The family moves away. Their standard of living has taken a blow, but their neighbors seem to be more tolerant. All seems well until Ludovic's mother catches him swapping clothes with an eight-year-old girl and has a nervous fit. only to learn it was the girl who wanted to dress up like a boy! Perhaps her son has finally met his match?
