Plot
Young students form a Maoist cell in a Paris apartment.
Sinekatalog’s take
Jean-Luc Godard's colourful political satire follows young Maoists in a Paris apartment. Stylised, teasing and prophetic about 1968, it is a fascinating if cool and talky time capsule.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
