One of the most affecting depictions of gay first love ever committed to screen, this tender and knowing drama deals with friendship, coming out, and teenage sexuality, all set against the political turmoil of the 1962 French/Algerian conflict. Made for a French television series that was based on the early romantic remembrances of several directors, the story is set in a rural boarding school and revolves around the loves and friendships of three teenagers as well as an Algerian youth of 21. A beautiful movie. Sub-titled.
