Jeanne Moreau directs a lovely portrait of youth in bloom.
1939, and as the spectre of war looms over Europe, 13-year-old Marie takes a rural holiday with her family. Increasingly aware of both her own burgeoning sexuality and the adult tensions around her, she develops an infatuation with an older man – only to see her mother commence an affair with the object of her desires… Cool, intelligent and sympathetic, this is a memorable portrait of an intense moment in life.
