Newcomer Léna Magnien excels as the prickly teen, full of smart answers and inconstant personality traits. Her parents threaten boarding school, but an empathetic teacher and an offer to join a band give her new possibilities. The band’s friendship helps her open up, realise her own talent and create an opportunity for her family to see her in a different light. Director’s note: Miss Impossible is a heartfelt look at finding one’s place in the world. Rebellious, awkward, thrilling! Screening as part of the IFI French Film Festival 2016.
