Nadia Melliti Stars in French Lesbian Drama ‘The Little Sister’ Trailer

“You’ve got to live, don’t you?” Madman Films in Australia has unveiled an official trailer for the film The Little Sister, an acclaimed French coming-of-age drama from filmmaker / actress Hafsia Herzi directing her fourth feature so far. This originally premiered at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival earlier this year in the Main Competition section – it won the coveted Best Actress award for star Nadia Melliti who plays Fatima. The film just opened in French cinemas a few weeks ago after playing at festivals all year long. Fatima, 17, is the youngest of 3 daughters in a French-Algerian family. Wanting to find her own path in life, she begins university studies in Paris, where she embraces new experiences. She struggles to develop her identity and balance emerging desires, including her attraction to women, while also maintaining a sense of loyalty to her family. The cast features Nadia Melliti with Park Ji-min (also seen in Return to Seoul), Amina Ben Mohamed, Rita Benmannana, and Melissa Guers. This looks quite good! Not sure another story about life in Paris, a more meaningful coming-of-age tale of identity & honesty. Keep an eye out for this one soon. // Continue Reading ›
