The Apprenticeship of Duddy Kravitz

There's a little bit of Duddy Kravitz in everyone.

A comedic yet thoughtful coming-of-age portrait of an ambitious young man navigating ambition, family loyalty, and social prejudice in 1970s Montreal.

The younger son of a working-class Jewish family in Montreal, Duddy Kravitz yearns to make a name for himself in society. This film chronicles his short and dubious rise to power, as well as his changing relationships with family and friends. Along the way the film explores the themes of anti-semitism and the responsibilities which come with adulthood.
