About Le Choix d'Elodie
Elodie is sixteen years old. For several months now, her great love affair with Harry, a high school classmate, has been helping her forget her father's absence and the dreariness of the suburb where she lives with her mother. But a few days after her birthday, reality suddenly catches up with her when she discovers she is pregnant. Faced with a fait accompli, Harry procrastinates and hesitates. Elodie, however, once the shock of the discovery has passed, does not feel capable of having an abortion. The contradictory advice she receives from those she turns to in her distress does not help her to keep a clear head...
Directed by Emmanuelle Bercot, Le Choix d'Elodie leans on a strong ensemble — Isild Le Besco, Julie-Marie Parmentier, Charlotte Véry — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about tv movie titles of 1999.
