Kids Run the Show

Delphine de Vigan

A cautionary tale for a world in which social media has shattered the boundaries of intimacy.

The first time that M?lanie met Clara, she was stunned by Clara's sense of authority, and for her part, Clara was struck by M?lanie's pink, glittery nails, which shimmered in the dark. "She looks like a child," thought the first. "She looks like a doll," pondered the second.

These two women, both of the same generation and exposed to the same forms of media throughout their lives, could not be more different in adulthood. M?lanie is a social media superstar, broadcasting her children's daily lives on a family YouTube channel. Clara is a young police officer, assigned to the case after M?lanie's daughter Kimmy is abducted.

Traversing the Big Brother generation, the social media influencer generation, and right up to the 2030s, Delphine de Vigan offers a bone-chilling expos? of a world where everything is broadcasted and monetized, even family happiness.
