Its unflinching, but also warmly accommodating, outlook on childhood attracted Fran ois Truffaut to take on the role as co-producer of Pialat's film - which, ironically, exists as much as a response to Truffaut's own debut The 400 Blows as that film was to the 'cinema of childhood' that came before the New Wave. First-time actor Michel Tarrazon plays the young Fran ois, a provincial orphan whose destructive behaviour precipitates his relocation from the home of a long-term foster family to the care of a benevolent elderly couple. In the course of this transition, Pialat's film presents the turbulence of Fran ois's unmoored existence, and his explosive reactions to the contradictory emotions it engenders. This is the naked portrait of a soul's - and an entire society's - dysfunction, before the moment of reconciliation. ...Naked Childhood (1968) ( L'enfance nue ) ( Me )
