World Cinema: Le Depart

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

This week: from Belgium starring Jean-Pierre Leaud, Catherine Duport

Nineteen-year-old Marc, a hairdresser's assistant with a passion for fast cars, enters his name for a car rally. But, alas, there's a snag - he has no car. So Marc desperately tries to beg, borrow, or steal a suitable vehicle.
Starring Jean-Pierre Leaud, who has served the French nouvelle vague movement in childhood and maturity, Le Depart is lighter than but not dissimilar to Skolimowski's earlier film Barrier.
