This powerful story of an unlikely friendship between two women was a trailblazer for its time in French cinema. The co-protagonists each offer a unique insight into femininity, powerlessness, and growing from a girl into a woman. The film also makes a thought-provoking explanation Varda's understanding of second-wave feminism in France. Highly recommend for anyone looking to explore Varda's later career.
