French New Wave Film Cycle: 400 blows

France 99 min.
Antoine Doinel is a boy who grows up in a family that pays him little attention, especially his mother. As a result, he spends his free time either alone or roaming the streets of Paris, gradually becoming a petty delinquent. This behaviour is simply his way of becoming self-aware and asserting his own identity in opposition to the social norms imposed on him at school and by society at large. Misunderstood and misjudged, Antoine is sent to a reform school, from which he escapes at the first opportunity to run towards the open horizon of the ocean.
