Australian Premiere
“first-time writer-director Agathe Riedinger tells this story...with a clear-eyed dramatic power worthy of Andrea Arnold or the Dardenne brothers.” – Variety
In her debut feature which expands her 2018 short Waiting for Jupiter, Agathe Riedinger casts a critical eye on influencer culture and the damaging hold it can take on young women forced to adhere to unrealistic beauty standards.
Liane, 19, reckless and incandescent, lives with her mother and little sister under the dusty sun in a working-class neighbourhood in Fréjus. As a budding influencer obsessed with beauty, she yearns to become famous and win the approval of her online fans. Destiny finally seems to smile on Liane when she passes a casting for reality TV series, "Miracle Island", and sees this shot at fame as her chance at stardom. Driven by a magnetic performance from young lead Malou Khebizi, Wild Diamond is a provocative glimpse into the pitfalls of fame.
