Stars by the Pound
Directed by Marie-Sophie Chambon
Produced by Koro Films, uMedia
A warm, character-driven coming-of-age story about misfits finding solidarity and hope through shared dreams, balancing humor with the real weight of adolescent struggle.
Lois, 16, has only one dream: becoming an astronaut. However, although she’s gifted in physics, she has a big problem: Lois weighs over 200 pounds – a family trait she’s inescapably stuck with. Then, just when everything seems lost, Lois meets Amélie, Stannah, and Justine: three teenagers shattered, like her, by life’s tough breaks; yet ready for anything in order to leave with her for outer space…
