Samuel - L'intégrale

Is there still any need to introduce the preteen who captured the hearts and souls of millions of fans of all ages, first in fifth grade, then in sixth grade? A little gem of accuracy, simplicity, and grace, this black-and-white animated series is worth (re)discovering in its entirety. Carried by the irresistible voice of a boy writing in his diary—actually that of author-director Émilie Tronche—it unfolds a plot as subtle as it is essential (will Samuel succeed in winning the heart of the older Julie?) to recount the froth of everyday life and childhood passing by.
