In his last few months before military service, a young TV technician, on holiday, is torn bewteen two girls. Rozier’s first feature, using improvisation, amateur performers, hidden microphones and cameras in real locations, had a rough spontaneity very much in line with the aesthetics of the ‘nouvelle vague’.
