Synopsis

Mouchette (the name means “little fly”) is a child who endures an unhappy life with her alcoholic father and terminally ill mother in a remote village. Robert Bresson tracks the ups and downs (mostly downs) of her life with a closeness of perspective that seems almost telepathic. As with all of Bresson’s films, this is not what you should choose for a diverting night’s entertainment. It is tough, it is demanding, but it’s the real thing. In 35mm.
