Stuffed with stylistic fripperies and maddening digressions, this tale of an abused runaway says more about its debuting director (fashion designer agnès b.) than it does its troubling subject matter. Sloppily structured, indifferently played and unbearably smug.
My Name Is Hmm… Review
Eleven year-old Celine (Demerliac) looks after her younger sister while his mother (Testud) works night shifts as a waitress. Her jobless dad (Bonnaffe), meanwhile, sexually abuses her. A school trip to the coast gives her all the chance she needs to escape.

Original Title:
My Name Is Hmm…
