La Chinoise

In Paris, during the summer of 1967, a disillusioned group of middle-class students, led by Guillaume and Veronique, seek to transform their lives and the world around them. Inspired by Maoism and its revolutionary ideology, they form a small cell and embark on a journey that explores the potential use of terrorism and violence in igniting change. Jean-Luc Godard, renowned for his own passion for Maoist thought, creates a frenzied satire with this film. As he dissects the youth's radical transformation, traditional critics found themselves at odds with the director's unflinching portrayal of political zeal and its potential consequences.
