Les Quatre Cents Coups (F. Truffaut, 1959)
At only 14, Antoine Doinel is forced not only to witness the marital disputes of his parents, but also deal with the demands of a strict teacher. One day, scared because he did not finish a task his teacher ordered him to do as punishment, he decides to skip class with his friend René. He unexpectedly sees his mother with another man; and the guilt and fear he feels leads him to tell a series of lies which slowly start to eat at his soul. Longing to leave all of his problems behind, he dreams with seeing the ocean and draws up a plan with René for both of them to escape.
