Description

This course will focus on the representation of youth in a broad way (childhood, adolescence, young adults) in French cinema from the 1930s to the present time. We will watch and discuss both classic French films and lesser-known works to explore the role that cinema has given to youth throughout its history. Through the topic of youth, we will explore the main societal changes that have shaped French society of the 20th and 21st century. Students will also learn the necessary analytical tools to approach a film from a narrative and aesthetic perspective.
