The film centers on Léo (Karelle Tremblay), a girl trapped in a "cynical" world of small-town industrial decay where sincerity is rare. Her journey is less about a traditional plot and more about a "pop-impressionistic" transition into adulthood. Core Themes & Symbolism Sébastien Pilote’s 2018 film, (The Fireflies Are Gone),
