Petite nature (original title)
1h 33m | Drama | 9 March 2022 (France)
Storyline:Follows ten year-old Johnny who stands out in different aspects way beyond his age. Things change when his new teacher sees his potential, believes in him and wants to open a new world to him.User review:Samuel Theis’ Softie is a delicate portrait of the hurdles of social development for someone living in the corners of regional deprivation. Softie observes the cusp between childhood and adolescence through a personal and reflective lens, balancing a docudrama aesthetic and an emotionally charged script. Theis’ direction, like Alex Moratto’s feature Socrates, channels the poetic rusticism of French New Wave in a way that grounds coming-of-age cinema within a symphony of tactile memories.
