Movie Review: Ma Vie En RoseEssay Preview: Movie Review: Ma Vie En RoseReport this essaySection I: SummaryThe French-Belgian film (the director was Belgian) Ma Vie En Rose (My Life in Pink) is a story set in France about a family of six (Mom – Hanna, Dad – Pierre, three sons (Ludovic being the youngest, and Daughter) in which the 7 year old son, Ludovic (Ludo for short), has a gender identity disorder. Ludo thinks hes a girl and God mistakenly made him a boy when his second X chromosome didnt go down the chimney. He attempts to correct this mistake by dressing like and acting like a girl. At first, Ludos parents find his behavior humorous. However, after repeated incidents of girlish behavior – including dressing up like a girl and pretending to marry his best friend, Jerome – his parents start to think theres a serious problem and find a psychologist to help their son. The psychologist is apparently unsuccessful in convincing Ludo that he is meant to be a boy. His continued behavior considerably stresses his parents. They are at times accepting of the way he is and at other times exasperated and livid at him for being so indecisive about his sexuality. But his problems are also affecting his school life (the parents of Ludos classmates successfully petition the school to expel him) and his social life [his friends make fun of him and call him bent (gay)]. After Pierre (Ludos father) is mysteriously laid-off (Jeromes father is Pierres boss), Pierre finds another job. However, this job calls for the family to move from the suburbs of Paris. This move lets Ludo and his family get a fresh start.
