Summary:
Anne, Léa, Flavie, Alice and Julia were part of the first wave of Chinese children adopted in Quebec in the 1990s. They Think I'm Chinese! takes us into the inner world of these young girls. Director Nicole Giguère filmed them over a three-year period and accompanied some of them on an emotional journey to the country where they were born. How do these young Quebeckers experience their differences? Through the ups and downs of daily life, by way of their concerns and discoveries, the girls reveal their innermost feelings with sincerity and courage. Their thoughts are perceptive and mature. This film is first and foremost a story of trust and collaboration between the director and the five adolescents, one of whom is her own daughter. Our encounter with girls we assume to be Chinese is both touching and inspiring.

! nous convie dans l'univers intime de ces adolescentes que la réalisatrice Nicole Giguère a suivies durant trois ans. Elle a aussi accompagné quelques-unes d'entre elles dans un voyage intense au pays qui les a vues naître. Comment ces jeunes Québécoises vivent-elles leur différence? Entre les hauts et les bas de la vie quotidienne, au fil de leurs préoccupations et de leurs découvertes, les filles se livrent avec sincérité et courage. Leurs réflexions sont empreintes de lucidité et de maturité. Ce film est avant tout
une
histoire de confiance et de complicité entre la réalisatrice et les cinq adolescentes, dont l'
une
est sa propre fille. Notre rencontre avec celles qu’on
prend
pour
des Chinoises est aussi touchante qu'inspirante.
