Plot:	The 12-year-old protagonist Antoine and tough Truffaut are both social outcasts: failures at school who ran way from home and ended up in custody. The one thing that makes their lives worth living is the cinema. Inspired by the director's own childhood.
Overview:	This film is a landmark in modern cinema, launching the French New Wave and turning Francois Truffaut from a critic into one of the world's most distinquished filmmakers. Inspired by the director's own childhood, THE 400 BLOWS is more than a semi-autobiography. The 12-year-old protagonist Antoine and yough Truffaut are both social outcasts: failures at school, who turned to delinquency, ran way from home, and ended up in custody. And the one thing that makes their lives worth living passion for cinema. A tribute to Andre Bazin and winner of Best Director at Cannes, THE 400 BLOWS marks the first of a long collaboration between Truffaut and the charming young actor Jean-Pierre Leaud.
