Based on a scenario co-authored by the late French cinema great Francois Truffaut. A 16 year old girl Janine Castang is beset with antisocial drives due in part to an unpleasant home life. Janine has a vivid fantasy life, and a problem with kleptomania. After she's caught stealing she's forced to go to work as a maid rather than continue in school. Soon afterward, her romantic nature flowers in a number of new relationships which place new obstacles before her. References: |
