Synopsis

Considered one of the most beautiful color films ever made, Jacques Demy’s masterpiece of music and romance—winner of the 1964 Cannes Film Festival Grand Prize—catapulted the 20-year-old Catherine Deneuve to international stardom. This restoration, supervised by Demy’s widow Agnès Varda, restores one of the great French classics to its former glory.
