A series of feature films reflecting some of the finest work of many of France's most famous and talented directors and artists
Starring Jean-Pierre Leaud

Lack of parental affection and loneliness make a twelve-year-old boy introverted and dishonest. For twelve-year-old Antoine Doinel school means a dilapidated classroom, old-fashioned punishments, sarcasm, and ignorance. At home the atmosphere is one of indifference. Antoine cuts school, steals from his parents, cribs the ending for an essay, and catches sight of his mother kissing a lover in the street.
