The Bakery Girl of Monceau
Directed by Éric Rohmer
Produced by Studios Africa, Les Films du Losange
A delicate, observational romance about a young man's indecision between two women, told with Rohmer's characteristic blend of philosophical inquiry and everyday charm.
Early new wave effort from Rohmer, which was the first of his six moral tales. It concerns a young man who approaches a girl in the street, but after several days without seeing her again, he becomes involved with the girl in the local bakery. Eventually, he has to choose between them when he arranges dates with them on the same day.
