    Haiti, 1971. Against the backdrop of poverty, fear and a brutal dictatorship, Le goût des jeunes filles is about Fanfan through whose eyes the story is told. Having lived a somewhat sheltered life with his protective mother, Fanfan is a 15-year-old boy who just wants to experience life for himself with his streetwise friend Gégé. Following a bizarrely terrifying incident involving a Tonton-Macoute, Fanfan decides to hide out at his beautiful neighbour's house for the weekend, where he is trapped between his fear of being caught and the fulfilling of his deepest fantasy.
