This Netflix drama is a French foreign language film, set in a Paris suburb. A teenager sees a drug dealer woman and wants to make that kind of money with that kind of freedom.
She approaches the drug dealer rand gets a job after a bit of hazing. Subsequent scenes show the teen with money, love interests, and having what she wants.
That's what the trailer showed us. I'm guessing something brings her world crashing down and she has to crawl out from under the rubble.
It won an award at the Cannes film festival for best feature by a first time director.
