Tiphaine ne profite pas de son stage de plongée : elle est mordue d’un garçon qui l’ignore et dont le seul signe de vie est une vidéo du Puy-du-Fou. Pour l’aider, ses amies lui confient le secret d’une vie épanouie : laisse tomber les mecs, et embrasse une fille… Mais encore faut-il aimer les filles.
Tiphaine is not enjoying her diving course: she is waiting for news from a boy who ignores her, and whose only sign of life is a video taken on the fly at Puy-du-Fou. Seeing her distress, her best friend Audrey confides in her the secret to a fulfilling life : forget about guys and kiss a girl. As luck would have it, an encounter with a naked woman in the sea provides Tiphaine with the perfect origin story for a new life. She gradually allows herself to be won over by the prospect of a smooth-sailing lesbian existence... But first she has to learn to like girls.
