Synopsis:
Godard's seventh feature is set against a background of an edgy France gripped by political upheaval, the Vietnam war and an election year in which De Gaulle kept his grip on power, much to the frustration of the disgruntled left...Told in fifteen precise vignettes, Goddard skilfully paints a picture of French youth using the oddball relationship between Paul (Jean-Pierre Leaud), just demobbed from the army and politically aware, and Madeleine (Chantel Goya), an aspiring pop star. Their relationship is a struggle between consumerism and idealism, which the director exploits with considerable wit and aplomb.
Besides being a superb study of contemporary French society in the late Sixties, this film marked the emergence of Jean-Luc Godard as a powerful auteur boldly examining the attitudes of an emerging youth culture in the political climate of which he was a part.
