This review contains spoilers

Season 3 of SKAM France is a beautiful representation of the difficulties a young boy can face when he discovers his homosexuality. This season shows the pain that can bring internalized homophobia. Other sexual orientation realities are also shown through other queer characters in this show, it offers a more complete representation. The strength of this show is the challenges that Eliott experiences with his bipolarity and how the young couple navigates through their relationship and its difficulties.
