Set in the competitive world of synchronised swimming, Water Lillies is a brilliantly observed portrait of female adolescence. The film centres around three 15-year-old-girls who experience first love in very different ways.
Water Lillies is the directorial debut of twenty-seven year-old Céline Sciamma and stars newcomers Pauline Acquart, Louise Blachère, Adèle Haenel and Warren Jacquin. Premiering at the 2007 Cannes Film Festival in Un Certain Regard, Sciamma and her young cast were widely hailed as among the most talented newcomers to emerge from the festival.

A really different, but very good movie

I didn't really know what this film was about when I first saw the trailer and did not know what to expect... but the film has a real truth about it... and it is something I think everyone could relate to in different ways... there are some very touching scenes and the depiction of first sexual experiences is very close to the mark! A great film! Worth a watch most definately!
