Kung Fu Master (Le petit amour)Based on a short story by Jane Birkin,
Le petit amour serves as a companion piece (of sorts) to Varda's earlier work,
Jane B. Par Agnès V.
Set in urban Paris, Mary Jane (Birkin) is a forty-year old divorcee living with her daughters Lucy and Lou (Charlotte Gainsbourg and Lou Doillon).
After a chance encounter with Lucy's friend Julien (played by Agnès' son Mathieu Demy), Mary is drawn into an obsession - a romance disconnected from reality.
An evocative portrayal of female desire that Varda described as an exploration of the "wanderings and errors of the heart".
