A series the whole family can enjoy, My 80s Teen Misadventures (Mes petits malheurs) delves, a half-hour at a time, into the teenage memories of narrator Jeffy, now an adult. It recounts his youthful adventures in the mid-1980s with humour and nostalgia, and at the same time lifts the veil on the secret, universal fears of all teenagers.
A typically awkward, insecure 12-year-old, Jeffy wants the same thing as millions of other young people his age: to be accepted and to find his place in the “nuclear catastrophe” phase of life called adolescence.
