Jacquot of Nantes

1991PG1h 58m7.7

A boy growing up in Nantes during WW2 around his father's mechanic workshop has a love for puppet shows and cinema and develops it into his own art. Jacques Demy, the artist at the end of his life, reflects on his childhood influences.

Jacquot Demy is a little boy at the end of the 1930s. His father owns an automotive garage and his mother is a hairdresser. The whole family lives happily and likes to sing and go to the movies. Jacquot is fascinated by every kind of show: theatre, cinema, puppets. He buys a camera to shoot his first amateur film... an evocation of French filmmaker Jacques Demy's childhood and avocation for the cinema and musicals.
